| In the moonlight one dark night was shown
|
| Oh darkened dead-eye
|
| When the shadows did move and the wind did moan
|
| Oh darkened dead-eye
|
| And the wind did moan ohooo down in Hollows Cove
|
| Underground was a sound and the earth did rise
|
| Oh darkened dead-eye
|
| Boundary broke and souls awoke up to the night
|
| Oh, I could see them plain in sight
|
| Down in the Hollows cove
|
| On the wind they flew the wind they flew woowoowoo
|
| And with silvery sighs the silvery moon they cut in two
|
| And from their eyes fell the tears like evening dew
|
| To the earth from where they’d come and be pulled soon
|
| On the wind, on the wind, they did soar
|
| Woooo
|
| To the homes that they 'd left on the farthest shore
|
| Woooo
|
| To the ears of the child’s sleeping child
|
| Listen darling
|
| I shed this tear for the fear you have at your side
|
| Little darling
|
| So Sleep sweetly sleep sweetly
|
| Don’t you wake till the morning light
|
| I’ve come to take all that troubles you
|
| I’ve come to rest at your side
|
| Sleep sweetly and dreaming
|
| May these two arms you feel
|
| And peaceful replace here the fear that wakes you from sleep
|
| This one night of the year I will bury it, bury it deep
|
| Sleep sweetly, sleep sweetly
|
| For I’ll bury it, bury it deep
|
| The shadows moved and the wind did moan
|
| The child awoke the child awoke but did not feel alone
|
| And open ear he did have when whisper spoke
|
| In your dreams I will come and with your fears I’ll go
|
| To bury them deep deep deep down in the soil
|
| So don’t you be afraid of the Hollows Cove, child |
