I Cover the Waterfront Songtext
von Billie Holiday and Her Orchestra

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 starlit sky above

Here am I patiently waiting, hoping and longing
Oh, how I yearn
Where are you?
Have you forgotten?
Will you remember?
Will you return?


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

Here am I patiently waiting, hoping and longing
Oh, how I yearn
Where are you?
Have you forgotten?
Will you remember?
Will you return?

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