about

written by Johnny W. Green and Edward Heyman

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
Have you forgotten
Will you remember?
Will you return?

I cover the waterfront
I'm searching the sea
Will the one I love be coming back to me
Will the one I love be coming back to me
