i cover the waterfront (1956 / carnegie hall) - billie holiday lyrics

Loading...

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
an i’m covered
by a starlit sky above

here am i
patiently waiting
hoping and longing
oh how i yearn

where are you?
have you forgotten?
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?

will the one i love
be coming back to me?
