I Cover the Waterfront

Away from the city
That hurts and mocks
I'm standing alone
By the daze of the darks
In the still and the chill of the night

I see the horizon
The great unknown
My heart hasn't ache
It's as heavy as stone
Will the dawn come along
Make it light

I cover the waterfront
I'm watching the sea
Will the one I love
Be coming back to me?

I cover the waterfront
In search of my love
And I'm covered by
A starlit of the sky above

Here am I patiently waiting
Hoping and longing
Oh, how I yearn
Where are you?
Are you forgiving?
Do you remember?
Will you return?

I cover the waterfront
I'm watchin' the sea
For the one I love
Must soon come back to me
For the one I love
Must soon come back to me
