Generate meaning
1
The night was black, rain fallin' down;
2
Looked for my baby, she's nowhere around.
3
Traced her footsteps down to the shore,
4
'Fraid she's gone forever more.
5
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say,
6
"I took your baby from you away."
7
I heard a voice cryin' in the deep,
8
"Come join me baby in my Endless Sleep."
9
Why did we quarrel, why did we fight?
10
Why did I leave her alone tonight?
11
That's why her footsteps ran into the sea
12
That's why my baby has gone from me.
13
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say,
14
"I took your baby from you away."
15
I heard a voice cryin' in the deep,
16
"Come join me baby in my Endless Sleep."
17
Ran in the water, heart full of fear,
18
There in the breakers I saw her near;
19
Reached for my darlin', held her to me,
20
Stole her away from the angry sea.
21
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say,
22
"You took your baby from me away."
23
My heart cried out, "She's mine to keep."
24
I saved my baby from an Endless Sleep.
