Billie Holiday ~ I Cover The Waterfront


Johnny w. green / edward heyman 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 It's 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 Will the one i love Be coming back To me more free lyrics

Johnny w. green / edward heyman

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
It's 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

Will the one i love
Be coming back
To me

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
