The night was black rain fallin' down
Looked for my baby she's no where around
Chased her footsteps down to the shore
Afraid she's gone forevermore
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
I stole her away from the angry sea
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say
You took my baby from me away
My heart cryin' she's mine to keep
I saved my baby from the endless sleep
I saved my baby from the endless sleep
Endless sleep
Endless sleep
Endless sleep
Endless sleep
Endless sleep
Endless sleep
