I Cover the Waterfront Songtext
von Anita O’Day

I cover the waterfront
I′m watching the sea
For the one I love
Must soon come 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?
Will 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

Here am I
Patiently waiting
Hoping and longing
Oh, how I yearn!
Where are you?
Are you forgetting?
Will 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
Will the one I love be coming back to me?
