Oh here I stand
Watching the tide go out
So all alone and blue
Dreamin' dreams of you
I watched your ship
As it sailed out to sea
Taking all my dreams
Taking all of me

The sighing of the waves
The wailing of the winds
The tears in my eyes burning
Pleading my loves return

Oh why oh why
Must I go on like this?
Shall I be a lonely
Stranger on the shore

The sighing of the waves
The wailing of the winds
The tears in my eyes burning
Pleading my loves return

Oh why oh why
Must I go on like this?
Shall I be a lonely
Stranger on the shore
