I'm Thinking Tonight Of My Blue Eyes

Sons Of The Pioneers


It would've been better for us had we never 
In this wide wicked world had ever met 
For the pleasures we've both seen together 
I am sure love I'll never forget. 

Oh, I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes 
Who is sailing far over the sea 
Oh, I'm thinking tonight of him only 
And I wonder if he ever thinks of me. 

Oh, you told me once dear that you loved me 
And you said that we never would part 
But a link in the chain has been broken 
Leaving me with a sad and aching heart. 

Oh, I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes 
Who is sailing far over the sea 
Oh, I'm thinking tonight of him only 
And I wonder if he ever thinks of me. 

When the cold cold grave shall enclose me 
Will you come dear and shed just one tear 
And say to the strangers around dear 
A poor heart you have broken lies here. 

Oh, I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes 
Who is sailing far over the sea 
Oh, I'm thinking tonight of him only 
And I wonder if he ever thinks of me. 

Oh, I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes 
Who is sailing far over the sea 
Oh, I'm thinking tonight of him only 
And I wonder if he ever thinks of me..
