I Cover the Waterfront (Back In Town)

I just got back in town

My darling, I couldn't stay away

Thinking of you night and all day

Made me blue

Hey, my sweet little girl

I had to come back home

If just to say hello

And that I love you so

I sure want you to know, sweetheart

You are the only one

That I could ever live my life with

Darling, I never knew

That I could ever be this blue about a girl like you

You're about to drive me crazy, yes, you are

You just keep telling me that someday we will both be together

And be so happy just we two

I love you darling, we'll go to Paris and we'll be so happy there

Yes, I know that we will

Hey little girl, you are mine

I am the same guy that you swore that you loved

But I have waited long enough for you

To make up your sweet mind about me

Tell me, baby, can't you see that I plan to wed you someday?

Hurry baby, pretty lady, say you'll marry me

'Cause you know that I'll make you happy, yes, you know that I will

I wouldn't fool you 'cause you give my heart a thrill

Every morning when the sun comes up and the tide goes down

I see your lovely face before me and it looks so pretty, baby

You know it made me go and pack my back

And hurry on back into the city

Can you ever forget the things that we have both planned?

Have you gone and let your heart fail me?

How can I forget the things that you said?

Stop crying

You're the one I love, baby, say you're mine

I've got a ring for you

And I'll put it on your finger if you'll only say

You'll come and go away with me

A trip to Paris, live in L.A.

Hey my pretty baby, it was sure our lucky day

The day that I met you
