When the boat comes in 

I´ll wait for you 

With your little son 

With his eyes so blue 

Cause of this war 

You're far away 

Come on home to me 

Come on home to stay 



All the girls in town 

Are so afraid 

It'll be too late 

And they'll have to wait 

In loneliness till eternity 

Come on home to stay 

Come on home to me 



When the boys come home 

From across the sea 

They'll come home 

For you and me 

United we will all survive 

You will see 

When the boys arrive 



When the boys come home 

From across the land 

We'll be happy then again 

And peace will be 

In every heart 

In the hope that 

Will never part 



And the times has come 

When we should fight 

For peace and love 

And the human rights 

If I love you and you love me 

Let's get together 

Then let's all be free 



When the boys come home 

From across the sea...
