Stranger On The Shore

The Four Tops · Other Songs - The Four Tops

Here I stand

Watching the tide go

(Watching the tide go out)

So all alone and blue

Just dreaming dreams of you



I watch your ship, I watch your ship

As it sails out to sea

(As it sails out to sea)

Taking all of my dreams, Dear

And taking all of me, Yeah



The sighing of the waves

The whaling of the wind

To you, my dear, I love you

Oh where do I begin?



Oh why, oh why, oh why must I

Must I go on like this?

(Must I go on like this)

Must I just be alone here

The stranger on the shore?



The sighing of the waves

The whaling of the wind

To you, my dear, I love you

Oh where do I begin?



Oh why, oh why, oh why must I

Must I go on like this?

(Must I go on like this)

Must I just be alone here

To plead my love's return?

(Plead my love's return)



Must I go on like this

(Must I go on like this)

All alone and feeling blue?

Yeah



I watch your ship

(I watch your ship)



As it sails out

(As it sails out)



Oh why, oh why?

(oh why, oh why)



Oh why, oh why?

(Oh why, oh why)



Oh why, oh why, oh why?

(Oh why, oh why)



Oh my, oh my, oh my

(Oh my, oh my)



Stranger on the shore

(Stranger on the shore)
