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 its as heavy as stone. Will the dawn coming on make it light? 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 soon come back to me. All alone Please come back to me
