Hither and Thither and Yon - Brook Benton

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
