Letra da Música: I Cover The Waterfront - Elysian Fields

I Cover The Waterfront

( Billie Holiday's cover )

Away from the city, the 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, it's as heavy as stone
Will the dawn coming on make it last?

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