Chorus: Oh I’m thinking tonight of my blue eyes

Who is sailing far over the sea

Oh I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes

And I wonder if he ever thinks of me

Oh, you told me once, dear, that you loved me

You said that we never would part

But a link in the chain has been broken

A poor heart you have broken lies here
