I'm Thinking Tonight of My Blue Eyes lyrics

Would've been better for us both had we never

In this wide and wicked world had never met

For the pleasure 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 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

Leaves me with a sad and aching heart

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

When the cold, cold grave shall enclose me

Will you come, dear, 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 my blue eyes

And I wonder if he ever thinks of me
