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, it's as heavy as stone
Will the dawn come at all? Make it last
ย
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
ย
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?
