Don Williams - Endless Sleep Lyrics
The night was dark, rain falling downLooked for my baby she's nowhere aroundTraced her footsteps down to the shoreÂFraid she's gone forever moreI looked at the sea and it seemed to sayI took your baby from you awayI heard a voice crying in the deepCome join me baby in my endless sleepWhy did we quarrel, why did we fightWhy did I leave her alone tonightThat's why her footsteps ran into the seaThat's why my baby is gone from meI looked at the sea and it seemed to sayI took your baby from you awayI heard a voice crying in the deepCome join me baby in my endless sleepRan in the water, heart full of fearThere in the breakers I saw her nearReached for my baby, held her to meStole her back from the endless sleepI looked at the sea and it seemed to sayYou took your baby from me awayMy heart cried out, she's mine to keepI saved my baby from that endless sleep
