i cover the waterfront

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 starless 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 come back to me
