Don't let it happed don't find somebody new
Don't let the loneliness make a fool of you
Don't be tempted by the moonlight while we are apart
Just remember you're in love with a far away heart

A far away heart but it's true
With only lonely duties hadn't taken me from you
And sent me far across the seas away from you sweetheart
But have no fear you're always here in this far away heart

[ fiddle ]
I'm so happy when you write me but when I read it through
I can see some tears have fallen on the letter too
Don't cry darling think about when our love got its start
That old love light's still burning bright in this far away heart

A far away heart but it's true...
