Billie Holiday

Johnny w. green / edward heyman
Away from the city that hurts and knocks,
Im 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
Im watching the sea
Will the one I love
Be coming back to me
I cover the waterfront
In search of my love
