I Cover the Waterfront [-1] Lyrics & Tabs by Billie Holiday
I Cover the Waterfront [-1]
guitar chords lyrics
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
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
An I'm covered by
A starlit sky above
Here am I patiently waiting
An 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
By soon come back to me
For the one I love
By soon come back to me
