Harbour Lights

Harbour Lights - Arthur Tracy

One evening long ago

A big ship was leaving

One evening long ago

Two lovers were graving

A crimson sun went down

The lights began to glow

Across the harbour

One evening long ago

I saw the harbour lights

They only told me we were parting

The same old harbour lights

That once brought you to me

I watch the harbour lights

How could I help if tears were starting

Goodbye to tender nights

Beside the silver sea

I long to hold you near

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 whispering

Some other harbour lights

Will steal your love from me

Now I know lonely nights

For all the while my heart is whispering

Some other harbor lights

Will steal your love from me
