There's a light on the sea And it's shining for me 'Cause I'm going away on the ocean Said a boy that just said Grabbed me out of my bed Now my head's getting giddy with motion Don't you worry sweetheart I won't be gone long I'll be coming home soon I promise I will carry your love Deep inside of me When the nighttime comes I'll be yours There's a light on the road As the train pulls its load Infant soldiers so keen To get at them Mama send me some socks 'Cause the rats got the lot But we're still sinking In two feet of water Don't you worry sweetheart I won't be gone long I'll be coming home soon I promise Don't you worry sweetheart I won't be gone long I'll be coming home soon I promise There's a light in the sky So at last it's good-bye As we gather the masks At the station Pull the throttle out, Jim What a beautiful blimp Now it could be a lengthy vacation Don't you worry sweetheart I won't be gone long I'll be coming home soon I promise When the nighttime comes I'll be yours
