"Endless Sleep" lyrics

"Endless Sleep"
(originally by Jody Reynolds)

One, two, one two three

The night was black, rain fallin' down
I looked for my baby, she's nowhere around
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 crying in the deep
"Come join me, baby, in my endless sleep, yeah"

Why did we quarrel? Why did we fight?
Why did I leave her alone last night?
That's why her footsteps ran down to the sea
That's why 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 (yeah)
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" (mm mm yeah)
I heard a voice cryin' in the deep, yeah
"I took your baby from the endless sleep"
Well, I dragged my baby from the angry sea
Yeah
