The lights in the harbor Don't shine for me I'm like a lost ship Adrift on the sea Sea of heartbreak, lost love an' loneliness Memories of your caress, so divine I wish you were mine again, my dear I am on this sea of tears Sea of heartbreak (Sea of heartbreak, heartbreak) How did I lose you Oh, where did I fail? Why did you leave me Always to sail This sea of heartbreak, lost love an' loneliness Memories of your caress, so divine How I wish you were mine again, my dear I am on this sea of tears Sea of heartbreak (Sea of heartbreak, heartbreak) Oh, what I'd give to sail back to shore Back to your arms once more Oh, come to my rescue Come here to me Take me and keep me Away from the sea Yes, this sea of heartbreak, lost love an' loneliness Memories of your caress, so divine How I wish you were mine again, my dear I'm on this sea of tears Sea of heartbreak (Sea of heartbreak, oh) It's a sea of heartbreak END
