(Back home in heartbreak U.S.A.)

The harbor's empty my love has gone
With aching heart I face each cold and lonely dawn
And till the trade winds bring him home to stay
I'll live in heartbreak U.S.A.

Don't let those Geisha girls get your heart in a whirl
And if you'll meet some sweet Fraulein remember you're mine
Don't forget your sweetheart while you're away
Back home in heartbreak U.S.A.

--- Instrumental ---

Sometimes I'm lonely and time stands still
And I wonder if you feel the way I always will
So darling write me letters every day
In care of heartbreak U.S.A.

Don't let those Geisha girls get your heart in a whirl
And if you'll meet some sweet Fraulein remember you're mine
Don't forget your sweetheart while you're away
Back home in heartbreak U.S.A...
