Thinking tonight of my blue eyes
Oh you told me once dear that you loved me That we never no never could part But the link in the chain has been broken And I'm left with a sad and aching heart Oh I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes Who is sailing far over the sea Oh I'm thinking tonight of her only And I wonder if she ever thinks of me It wouldn've been better for us both had we never In this wide wicked world ever met For the pleasure we've both seen together I am sure we will never forget * Refrain Now you may have freinds on the ocean And you may have some over the sea But you'll travel this whole wide world over And you'll never find a faithful friend like me * Refrain Like the birds that go out in the spring time Just to wander for pleasure alone While the sun shine is smiling upon them But someday they return to their home * Refrain When the pleasures of life cease to call you And you're done with your wine and your song Then come back to your home in the mountains To the girl who's been waiting so long * Refrain
