Gerry Hyde From A Distant Shore Lyrics

It was a starry, starry night
As I looked out upon the sea
Searching for the ships light
That took her away from me

I said to the bartender
I guess I'll have one more
And what good and I
When I still don't know what for

I played it the best I could
Gave it all I had
But watching her sail away
Made me so much more than sad

The thing I've come to know now
All I say and all I do
Looking back
It's all because of you

And I'm....
Just searching for you like a million times before
And You....
Are looking back at me, from a distant shore

You were all I could have wanted
I just didn't know it at the time
And when you went away
You left me with this rhyme

My mind is focused on the future
But my hearts still in the past
A sailor's love
You know, it never lasts

And I'm....
Just searching for you like a million times before
And you......
Are waving at me, from a distant shore

It was a starry, starry night
I really couldn't have asked more
I'm forever on the seaside
Longing for the distant..... Shore................
