Away from the city that hurts and mocks
I′m standing alone by the desolate docks
In the still of the chill of the night
I see the horizon, the great unknown
My heart has a ache that's as heavy as stone
Will the dawn coming on make it right?
I cover the waterfront
I′m watching the sea
For the one I love is coming back to me
I cover the waterfront
In search of my love
And I'm covered by a deep blue sky above
Here am I, patiently waiting
Hoping and longing, oh, how I've yearned
Where are you? Are you forgetting?
Do you remember? Will you return?
I cover the waterfront
I′m watching the sea
Will the one I love be coming back to me?
Here am I, patiently waiting
Hoping and longing, oh, how I′ve yearned
Where are you? Are you forgetting?
Do you remember? Will you return?
I cover the waterfront
I'm watching the sea
For the one I love is coming back to me
Away from the city that hurts and mocks
I cover the waterfront
