Gloria Lynne - I Cover the Waterfront

Away from the city that 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
With 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? Are you forgetting?
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
