Cindy, oh Cindy Cindy don't let me down Write me a letter, soon And I'll be homeward bound I joined the Navy to see the world But nowhere could I find A girl as sweet as Cindy The girl I left behind I've searched the wide world over Can't get her out of my mind Cindy, oh Cindy Cindy don't let me down Write me a letter, soon And I'll be homeward bound I see her face in every wave Her lips kiss every breeze Her loving arms reach out to me Through calm and stormy sea At night I face the lonely day Caressed by memories Cindy, oh Cindy Cindy don't let me down Write me a letter, soon And I'll be homeward bound I know my Cindy's waiting for me As I walk the decks alone Her loving arms reach out to me Soon I'll be heading home Then my sailing days will be over No more will I roam Cindy, oh Cindy Cindy don't let me down Write me a letter, soon And I'll be homeward bound And I'll be homeward bound
