Around the world I've searched for you,

I traveled on, when hope was gone, to keep a rendezvous.

I knew somewhere, sometime, somehow,

You'll look at me, and I would see the smile you're smiling now.

It might have been in County Down,

Or in New York, In Gay Paree, or even London Town.

No more will I go all around the world,

For I have found my world in you.
