Johnny Green - I Cover The Waterfront lyrics

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 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 Are you forgetting Will you remember Will you return I cover the waterfront I'm watching the sea Will the one I love Be coming back to me
