The night was black, rain falling down Look for my baby, she's nowhere around Traced her footsteps down to the shore Afraid she's gone for evermore I looked at the sea and it seemed to say I took your baby from you away I heard a voice cryin' in 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 Ran in the water, heart full of fear There in the breakers I saw her near Reached for my darling, 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 that endless sleep Endless sleep Endless sleep Endless sleep |
