Sea of Heartbreak

1961
Don Gibson

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 and 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.

How did I lose you?
Oh, where did I fail?
Why did you leave me,
Always to sail?

Sea of heartbreak, lost love and 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


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.

Sea of heartbreak, lost love and 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
It's a sea of heartbreak.
