Ricky Skaggs - Lost To A Stranger lyrics

rate me

We went out one evenin', my darlin' 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 playin' 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 darlin': "Will you dance with me?"

While they were dancin', 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 playin' had ended my dream.

Instrumental break.

While they were dancin', 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 playin' had ended my dream
