Eddie Jefferson — I Cover the Waterfront Back In Town

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? Do you remember? Will you return? I cover the waterfront I'm watching the sea For the one I love Must come back to me
