Lyrics I Cover the Waterfront (Live) (Live (1954/Cologne)) - Billie Holiday
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
starlit
sky
above
Here
am
I
patiently
waiting,
hoping
and
longing
Oh,
how
I
yearn!
Where
are
you?
Areyou
forgetting?
Doyou
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.
