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
Oh, my love, return

Why, oh, why
Must I go on like this
Shall I just be alone
Stranger on the shore

Why, oh, why
Must I go on like this
Shall I just be alone
Stranger on the shore
