• Lyrics:
  Darling, loved one, let me ask you,
  When you find me far away,
  And my heart is lonely drifting
  In the sunshine day by day;
  Will your spirit wander to me,
  As on distant shores you roam?
  Will your love come back to greet me
  With the sweetest tho'ts of home?
  
  chorus:
  Will your spirit wander to me,
  As on distant shores you roam?
  Will your love come back to greet me,
  With the sweetest tho'ts of home?
  
  Yes, I know your warmest longings
  Will come back with many a tear,
  With a message pure and fragrant
  From your loving heart sincere;
  And tho' pleasures strew your pathway,
  In the silv'ry sea and foam?
  May sweet tho'ts be ever turning
  From the exile far from home?
