I saw the harbour lights
They only told me we were parting
Oh same old harbour lights that once brought you to me

I watched the harbour lights
How could I help if tears were starting?
Goodbye to golden nights beside the silvery sea

I long 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 keeps praying
That someday harbour lights will bring you back to me

I long 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 keeps praying
That someday harbour lights will bring you back to me
