Lost To A Stranger Lyrics - Ricky Skaggs

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
