Lyrics:

It would been better for us both had we never
In this wide, wicked world, had never met
For the pleasures we've both seen together
I'm sure, love, I'll never forget

Oh, I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes
Who is sailing far over the sea
Oh, I'm thinking tonight of him lonely
And I wonder if he ever thinks of me


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

Oh, I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes
Who is sailing far over the sea
Oh, I'm thinking tonight of him lonely
And I wonder if he ever thinks of me


When the cold, cold grave shall enclose me
Won't you come here and shed just one tear?
And say to the strangers around you
A poor heart you have broken lies here?

Oh, I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes
Who is sailing far over the sea
Oh, I'm thinking tonight of him lonely
And I wonder if he ever thinks of me


Oh, I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes
Who is sailing far over the sea
Oh, I'm thinking tonight of him lonely
And I wonder if he ever thinks of me
