I Cover the Waterfront

I Cover the Waterfront - Billie Holiday (比莉.荷莉戴)

Away from the city that hurts and mocks

I'm standing alone by the desolate docks

In the still and the chill of the night

I see the horizon the great unknown

My heart has an ache it's as heavy as stone

Will the dawn coming on 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 sky above

Here am I patiently waiting hoping and longing

Oh how I yearn

Where are you

Have you forgetting

When you remember

Will you return

I cover the waterfront

I'm watching the sea

Will the one I love be coming back to me

Will the one I love be coming back to me
