Lost To A Stranger

(album: Waitin' For The Sun To Shine - 1981)

We went out one evening, my darling and I.
She seemed so different and I wondered why.
We stopped at a tavern and there I could see.
That she loved another one better than me.

The band was playing an old fashioned waltz.
The dance floor was crowded and I wasn't long,
When up stepped a stranger, I never had seen.
He asked my darling, "Will you dance with me?"

While they were dancing, I sat alone.
I knew I had lost her, the one I loved.
Lost to a stranger I never had seen.
The waltz they were playing had ended my dream.

While they were dancing, I sat alone.
I knew I had lost her, the one I loved.
Lost to a stranger I never had seen.
The waltz they were playing had ended my dream...
