I saw the harbor lights,
They only told me we were parting.
The same old harbor lights,
That once brought you to me.
I watched the harbor lights,
How could I help if tears were starting?
Goodbye to tender nights,
Beside the silv'ry sea.
I long to hold you near,
Baby kiss you just once more.
But you were on the ship,
And I was on the shore.
Now I know the lonely nights,
While all the while my heart is whisp'ring.
Some other harbor lights,
Will steal your love from me.
They only told me we were parting.
The same old harbor lights,
That once brought you to me.
I watched the harbor lights,
How could I help if tears were starting?
Goodbye to tender nights,
Beside the silv'ry sea.
I long to hold you near,
Baby kiss you just once more.
But you were on the ship,
And I was on the shore.
Now I know the lonely nights,
While all the while my heart is whisp'ring.
Some other harbor lights,
Will steal your love from me.
