Endless Sleep by Jody Reynolds Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 forevermore

[Chorus 1]
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"

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus 1]
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"
[Verse 3]
Ran in the water, heart full of fear
There in the breaker I saw her near
Reached for my darlin', held her to me
Stole her away from the angry sea

[Chorus 2]
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

[Outro]
Endless sleep
Endless sleep
Endless sleep
Endless sleep"
