Endless Sleep

Endless Sleep - Don Williams (唐·威廉姆斯)

The night was dark rain falling 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 crying 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 is gone from me

I looked at the sea and it seemed to say

I took your baby from you away

I heard a voice crying 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 baby held her to me

Stole her away from the endless sleep

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
