I Cover the Waterfront Billie Holiday

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?
Have you forgotten?
Will you remember?
Will you return?

I cover the waterfront
I'm watching the sea
Will the one I love be coming back to me?

Here am I patiently waiting, hoping and longing
Oh, how I yearn!
Where are you?
Have you forgotten?
Will you remember?
Will you return?
