| Oh, hither and thither and yon
|
| Around the world I’ve gone
|
| Searching for true love
|
| As so many do
|
| Hither and thither and yon
|
| From Cairo to far off Calay
|
| I traveled on and on
|
| Seeking that someone
|
| Who’s heart wouldn’t stray
|
| Hither and thither and yon
|
| Alas, I wondered
|
| Through many a land
|
| Too blind was I to see
|
| True love was always close at hand
|
| As close as you were to me
|
| My journey is over
|
| It’s good to be home
|
| Your face, I gaze upon
|
| And darling, I wonder
|
| Oh, why did I roam
|
| Hither and thither and yon
|
| (Hither and yon)
|
| Hither and thither and yon
|
| (Thither and yon)
|
| Hither and thither and yon |
