Endless Sleep
Love Lost: A Desperate Race Against the Sea
Lyrics
The night was black rain fallin' down
The night was dark, and rain was falling.
I looked my baby she's no where aroun'
I searched for my partner, but she was nowhere to be found.
Chased her footsteps down to the shore
I followed her footsteps to the shore.
Afraid she's gone for ever more
Fearing she's gone forever.
Well I looked at the sea, seemed to say
As I gazed at the sea, it seemed to communicate.
I took your baby from you away
The sea claimed to have taken my baby away.
I heard a voice cry in the deep
I heard a voice crying from the depths.
Come join me baby in my endless sleep
Inviting my baby to join in an eternal sleep.
Why did we quarrel why did we fight
Reflecting on why we argued and fought.
Why did I leave her alone last night
Regretting leaving her alone the previous night.
That's why her foot steps ran down to the sea
Her footsteps led to the sea because of our conflict.
That's wy my baby has gone from me
My baby left due to our disagreement.
Well I looked at the sea seemed to say
Observing the sea, it continued to claim responsibility.
I took your baby from you away
Reiterating that the sea took my baby away.
Well I heard a voice cry in the deep
Another cry from the depths is heard.
Come join me baby in my endless sleep
Asking my baby to join in an endless sleep.
Endless sleep
Repetition of the invitation to an endless sleep.
Out in the water heart full of fear
In the water, feeling fear in my heart.
There in the breaker I saw her near
Spotting her in the breaker, the waves.
Reached for my darlin' held her to me
Reaching for and holding my beloved, pulling her to me.
Dragged her away from the angry sea
Rescuing her from the turbulent and angry sea.
Well I looked at the sea seemed to say
Again, the sea seemed to assert its role.
I took your baby from you away
Repeating that the sea took my baby away.
I heard a voice cryin' in the deep
Another cry from the deep is heard.
I took your baby from the endless sleep
Reiterating that the sea took my baby from the endless sleep.
I grabbed my baby from the endless sleep
I grabbed my baby from the endless sleep.
