I Cover The Waterfront

Song I Cover The Waterfront
Artist Tony Bennett
Album Hometown, My Town

Lyrics

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 its 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?
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.
All alone
Please come back to me
