Staring out to sea
Full of dark premonitions
Thinking what to say
As the sun slowly deeps
Over Whitby bay
On that summer night
When we first shared a carriage
Made our bumpy way
Down the road curving round
Over Whitby Bay
We strolled to the old bowling green
The orchestra played sweet sixteen
Then we kissed our first kiss
My thoughts turn everyday
Back to Whitby Bay
Why do I feel cold
Why am I so frightened
Why did I agree to go so far away
Will I ever see you again
I'll stare out to sea until then
We were so happy here
My thoughts turn everyday
Back to Whitby Bay
One more lonely night
Full of dark premonitions
Shall we see the day
When the sun slowly deeps
Over Whitby Bay
Over Whitby Bay
