Here I stand watching the tide go out
So all alone and blue just dreaming dreams of you
I watched your ship as it sailed out to sea
Taking all my dreams and taking all of me

The sighing of the waves the wailing of the wind
The tears in my eyes burn pleading my love return
Why oh why must I go on like this
Shall I just be a lonely stranger on the shore

Why oh why must I go on like this
Shall I just be a lonely stranger on the shore
