Of all the stars that ever shone Not one would twinkle like your pale blue eyes And like golden corn at harvest time your hair Sailing in my boat gently blows and fills my sail Your sweet scented breath is everywhere And daylight peeping through the curtains Of the passing night time is your smile And the sun in the sky is like your laugh Come back to me my nancy, linger for just a little while Since you left these shores ive known no peace nor joy Chorus No matter where i wander im still haunted by your name the portrait of your beauty stays the same standing by the ocean wonderin where you've gone If you'll return again, where is the ring i gave to nancy spain On a day in spring, when snow starts to melt, streams to flow Away to the birds ill sing a song In the while il wander down by bluebell grove where wild flowers grow and il hope that lovely nancy will return Chorus
