Onward to the eastern skies, With mooing efforts kissed the sea I sigh and think of those blue eyes That have hope and love for me For they, o they have stole away The heart that truly once was mine Like some lone bird without a mate My weary heart is desolate I look around but cannot trace One welcome word or smiling face In gazing crowds I am alone, Because I never loved but one Come up closer to me now, Your chestnut hair is touched with snow But still it is the same dear face, I loved so well long years ago The same as on that winter night, You bent to me and kissed my brow Happy hours of trusting love, Oh well, they're all over now And I must sail the whitening foam, Till I can see the foreign home Till I forget that fair sweet face, I ne'er can find a resting place I look around but cannot trace One welcome word or smiling face In gazing crowds I am alone Because I never loved but one
