I Cover The Waterfront

The hurts and knocks

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 last

I cover the waterfront

I'm watching the sea

Will the one that I love

Be 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 yearn

Where are you

Are you forgetting

Do you remember

Will you return

I cover the waterfront

I'm watching the sea

'Cause the one that I love

Will soon come back to me

Oh where from city

That hers and max

I cover the waterfront
