Lost To A Stranger

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

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
