I Cover the Waterfront Songtext
von Sarah Vaughan and Her Trio

Thank y′all
Slower, slower, slower

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?
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

Oh, 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

To me
For the one I love
Must soon come back to me
