Lyrics

English: I said goodbye to my soldier boy as he sailed through the Golden Gate / I said goodbye as the tear drops fell and I watched him sail to his fate / Goodbye my soldier, goodbye my love, goodbye my soldier / I wait for you my soldier boy to return to my lonely heart / To tell me you are back again and we shall never part...
