Lyrics |
VERSE 1: Again I linger by the sad seashore, Where last we said goodbye; Again I'm dreaming of the days of yore And love that cannot die. Again I watch the stately vessels glide Across the silv'ry spray, But where's the ship of which I dream at night, why does it stay so long away? CHORUS: Bring back the one I love, Ship of my dreams Speed home across the foam, Where starlight gleams! My heart by night and day So weary seems Bring back the one I love, Ship of my dreams. Bring back the one I love, Ship of my dreams! VERSE 2: My ship of dreams is filled with thoughts of you, For true love ne'er forgets; My ship of dreams is filled with longings too, For true love still regrets. Regrets that you and I should ever part, And yet at times it seems, That you and I have always been, sweetheart, Together on my ship of dreams! |
