I saw the harbor lights
They only told me we were parting
Those same old harbor lights
That once brought you to me
I watch'd the harbor lights
How could I help if
Tears were starting?
Good-bye to golden nights
Beside the silv'ry sea
I longed to hold you dear
And kiss you just once more
But you were on the ship
And I was on the shore
Now I know lonely nights
For all the while my heart is praying
That someday harbor lights
Will bring you back to me
