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 starless sky above Here am I patiently waiting Hoping and longing, oh how I yearn! Where are you? Have you forgetting? Will you remember? Will you return? I cover the waterfront, I'm watching the sea Will the one I love be come back to me Will the one I love be come back to me
