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 Endless sleep Endless sleep
