The night was black rain fallin' down I looked my baby she's no where aroun' Chased her footsteps down to the shore Afraid she's gone for ever more Well I looked at the sea, seemed 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 Why did we quarrel why did we fight Why did I leave her alone last night That's why her foot steps ran down to the sea That's wy my baby has gone from me Well I looked at the sea seemed to say I took your baby from you away Well I heard a voice cry in the deep Come join me baby in my endless sleep Endless sleep Out in the water heart full of fear There in the breaker I saw her near Reached for my darlin' held her to me Dragged her away from the angry sea Well I looked at the sea seemed to say I took your baby from you away I heard a voice cryin' in the deep I took your baby from the endless sleep I grabbed my baby from the endless sleep
