"I'm Thinking Tonight Of My Blue Eyes" lyrics

"I'm Thinking Tonight Of My Blue Eyes"

Would have been better for us both if we'd never
In this wide and wicked world had never met
For the pleasures we've both seen together
I am sure, love, I'll never forget

Oh I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes
Who is sailing far over the sea
Yes I'm thinking tonight of her only
And I wonder if she ever thinks of me

Oh you told me once dear that you loved me
And you said that we never would part
But a link in the chain has been broken
Leaving me with a sad and aching heart

Oh I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes
Who is sailing far over the sea
Yes I'm thinking tonight of her only
And I wonder if she ever thinks of me

When death's cold, cold shadows fall around me
Would you come dear and shed just one tear?
And say to the friends all around you
The poor heart that I've broken lies here

Yes I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes
Who is sailing far over the sea
Yes I'm thinking tonight of her only
And I wonder if she ever thinks of me

Oh I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes
Who is sailing far over the sea
Yes I'm thinking tonight of her only
And I wonder if she ever thinks of me
