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 comin' on make it light? I cover the waterfront I'm watching the sea Will the one I love Be comin' 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 waitin' Hoping and longing Oh, how I yearn Where are you? Are you forgettin'? Do you remember? Will you return? I cover the waterfront I'm watching the sea For the one I love Must soon come back to me For the one I love Must soon come back to me
