Vera Lynn Harbour Lights lyrics

One evening long ago
A big ship was leaving
One evening long ago
Lover's 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 watched 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 life
While, all the while my heart is whispering
Some other harbour lights
Will steal your love from me

Now I know lonely life
While, all the while my heart is whispering
Some other harbour lights
Will steal your love from me
