Stranger On The Shore Lyrics By The Drifters

    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
