Harbor Lights
The Platters

Words and Music by Hugh Williams and Jimmy Kennedy

(peak Billboard position # 8 in 1960)
there were 5 Top 10 versions in 1950




I saw the harbor lights
They only told me we were parting
The same old harbor lights that once brought you to me
I watched the harbor lights
How could I help if tears were starting
Goodbye to tender nights beside the silv’ry sea

I longed to hold you near and kiss you just once more
But you were on the ship and I was on the shore

Now I know lonely nights
For all the while my heart is whisp’ring
Some other harbor lights will steal your love from me

I long to hold you near and kiss you just once more
But you were on the ship and I was on the shore

Now I know lonely nights
For all the while my heart is whisp’ring
Some other harbor lights will steal your love from me
