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 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
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
for the one I love
must soon come back
to me
