Away from the city that hurts and knocks 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 With the dawn coming on, make it last
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 An 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 thought back time Will you remember Will you return
