Endless Sleep

The night was black, rain fallin' down
Looked for my baby, she’s nowhere around
Traced her footsteps down to the shore
‘fraid she’s gone forever more
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say
«I took your baby from you away.
I heard a voice cryin' in the deep
«Come join me, baby, in my endless sleep.
Why did we quarrel, why did we fight?
Why did I leave her alone tonight?
That’s why her footsteps ran into the sea
That’s why my baby has gone from me.
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say
«I took your baby from you away.
I heard a voice cryin' in the deep
«Come join me, baby, in my endless sleep.
Ran in the water, heart full of fear
There in the breakers I saw her near
Reached for my darlin', held her to me Stole her away from the angry sea
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say
«You took your baby from me away.
My heart cried out «she's mine to keep
I saved my baby from an endless sleep.
Endless sleep, endless sleep
