Lyrics:

She's looking the new world over,
She's watching how things have changed
She waits for him but she waits in vain
He's been gone now for such a long time
Nothing can make her see he's not coming back

She stands alone
But the harbour lights won't be turned on tonight
She makes her way home
And the harbour lights won't be turned on tonight.

Nobody tries to tell her: she doesn't want to know
She won't believe in the cold, cold truth
The only dream she's ever owned
He's been gone now for such a long time
Nothing can make her see he's not coming back

She stands alone
But the harbour lights won't be turned on tonight
She makes her way home
And the harbour lights won't be turned on tonight.

Closing the door behind her she shuts the world away
He will always live inside her because she loves him
The only love she's ever known
He's been gone now for such a long time
Nothing can make her see he's not coming back

She stands alone
But the harbour lights won't be turned on tonight
She makes her way home
And the harbour lights won't be turned on tonight.
