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
Makin' it last
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 so patiently waiting
Hopin' and longin'
Oh, how I yearn
Where are you?
Have you thought back time
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?
