Tonight, as the moon rises silver above the sea,
I long for the harbour where you wait for me,
Do you, for I know you sorrow when we're apart,
I wish I could send a messenger from my heart.
Then you may find a dove waiting at your window,
Singing a song of love to you at your window,
Let it come in and there as it flies above you,
Know that it's heart is mine and it sings I love you.
Let your sorrow take wings,
Let your heart ever sing love,
As you cherish the memory of our love,
That a dove may bring.
