Jody Reynolds – Endless Sleep lyrics

The night was black, rain fallin' 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 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
Stole her away from the angry sea
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 an endless sleep.

(Fade) endless sleep, endless sleep
