| LYRICS/POETRY |
| She is standing on the shore Thru the cold dark night With nothing but a candle Under sad starlight. The waves caress the shore And whisper in her ear The memory of her husband Thru the long and lonely years. She stands there every night And braves the frozen wind Her man has not returned And has not been seen again. But every night she's there Under cold starlight Whispering his name Thru the long and lonely night. By Tony ("Rush") Wachnuik |
