But, oh, my heart is breakin’
And the wild, wild waves at play,
And my baby’s eyes all closed in death
Close to Manila Bay.
I’m thinkin’ av the little hands
That’s fastened ’round my heart;
They’re tellin’ me, “Have courage,
Sure, life’s to meet and part.”
But, oh, my heart is breakin’
And the wild, wild waves at play,
