As my boat draws near the harbor

Knowing soon that you’ll be mine

But if another has you darlin

I’ll go driftin’ with the tide

Chorus:

I have crossed the great wide ocean

I have waited for the time

But if another has you darlin

I’ll go driftin with the tide

A long. Long time has passed my darlin

Since the night we made those vows

I know my heart will break with sorrow

If you should say it’s over now

Chorus:

I have crossed the great wide ocean…

Repeat chorus:
