The night was dark rain falling down looked for my baby he's no where around
I traced his footsteps down to the shore afraid he's gone for ever 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 him alone tonight that's why his foot steps ran into the sea that's why my baby is gone from me
I looked at the sea and it seem to say
I took your baby from you away
I heard a voice cry in the deep
Come join me baby in my endless sleep

Ran in the water heart full of tear there in the breakers
I saw him near
Reached for my baby held him to me stole him away from the endless sleep
I looked the sea and it seemed to say you took your baby from me away
My heart cried out he's mine to keep
I saved my baby from that endless sleep
I saved my baby from that endless sleep
I saved my baby from that endless sleep
