The night was black rain fallin' down
Looked for my baby she's a-nowhere aroun
Traced her footsteps down to the shore
Afraid she's gone for ever more
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 foot steps went to the sea
That's why my baby has gone from me
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"
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
Looked at the sea seemed to say
"You took your baby from me away"
My heart cried out "she's mine to keep"
I saved baby from the endless sleep
Endless sleep
Endless sleep
Endless sleep
