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 |
