(Words & music by Roger Whittaker - R.A. Webster)
  There's a ship lies rigged and ready in the harbor
  Tomorrow for old England she sails
  Far away from your land of endless sunshine
  To my land full of rainy skies and gales
  And I shall be aboard that ship tomorrow
  Though my heart is full of tears at this farewell
  
  For you are beautiful, I have loved you dearly
  More dearly than the spoken word can tell
  For you are beautiful, I have loved you dearly
  More dearly than the spoken word can tell
  
  I've heard there's a wicked war a-blazing
  And the taste of war I know so very well
  Even now I see the foreign flag a-raising
  Their guns on fire as we sail into hell
  I have no fear of death, it brings no sorrow
  But how bitter will be this last farewell
  
  For you are beautiful, I have loved you dearly
  More dearly than the spoken word can tell
  For you are beautiful, I have loved you dearly
  More dearly than the spoken word can tell
  
  Though death and darkness gather all about me
  My ship be torn apart upon the seas
  I shall smell again the fragrance of these islands
  And the heaving waves that brought me once to thee
  And should I return home safe again to England
  I shall watch the English mist roll through the dale
  
  For you are beautiful, I have loved you dearly
  More dearly than the spoken word can tell
  For you are beautiful, I have loved you dearly
  More dearly than the spoken word can tell
