And yes, there's something you can send back to me
For that's all I'm wishin' to be ownin'
To make your time more easy passin'
From across that lonesome ocean
Take heed of the stormy weather
Is there something I can send you from across the sea
Just carry yourself back to me unspoiled
And it's only that I'm askin'
Or from the coast of Barcelona
It was from her ship a-sailin'
I would want again tomorrow
And the diamonds from the deepest ocean
But with the country to where you're goin'
Saying, I don't know when I'll be comin' back again
That I might be gone a long [Incomprehensible] time
I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss
Oh, I got a letter on a lonesome day
Is there something that I can send you to remember me by
There's nothin' I'm wishin' to be ownin'
It only brings me sorrow
Oh, if I had the stars from the darkest night
I'm sure you thoughts are not with me
Made of silver or of golden
The same thing I would want today
It depends on how I'm a-feelin'
I'm sure your mind is roamin'
From the place that I'll be landing?
Oh, how can, how can you ask me again?
Either from the mountains of Madrid
Oh, but I just thought you might want something fine
No, there's nothin' you can send me, my own true love
If you, my love, must think that-a-way
So take heed, take heed of the western winds
