The postman dropped the letter in my door

The address wasn plain but I could see

It had travelled far across the Great Pacific

From my Filipino Rose across the sea

The writing of her trembling hand was blurred

The paper it was sadly stained with tears

It read to tell me you have want another

After I have longed and waited all these years

But I still praying that the trade wind

Sends you sailing across the blue

In my harbor I dream you anchor

Where your lonely Filipino waits for you

I have promised her that I return someday

I told her she have won my heart and hand

I told her a lie cause I was lonely

Far from home a stranger in that foreign land

She wrote I watched the driftwood float on by

I watched the sea alone in it weary way

I have watched the silver sails out on the ocean

Hoping that you might return to me someday

The chains of love may never set you free

But through the years these mem fondly grow

This broken heart will always wait for you dear

It was signed your lonely Filipino Rose

But I still praying that the trade wind

Sends you sailing across the blue

In my harbor I dream you anchor

Where your lonely Filipino waits for you
