Endless Sleep Songtext
von The Hondells

The night was black, rain fallin′ down
Looked for my baby, she was nowhere around
Traced her footsteps down to the shore
Afraid she's gone forevermore

Well, I looked at the sea, and it seemed to say (Hey, hey, hey)
"I took your baby from you away"
I heard a voice cryin′ in the deep
I lost my baby to a devil's sleep

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


Well, I looked at the sea, and it seemed to say (Hey, hey, hey)
"I took your baby from you away"
I heard a voice cryin′ in the deep
I lost my baby to a devil's sleep

Ran in the water, heart full of fear
There in the breaker I saw her near
Reached for my baby, held her to me
Stole her away from the angry sea

Well, I looked at the sea, and it seemed to say (Hey, hey, hey)
"You took your baby from me away"
My heart cried out, "Girl, she′s mine to keep"
I saved my baby from a devil's sleep

I looked at the sea, and it seemed to say (Hey, hey, hey)
"You took your baby from me away"
My heart cried out, "Girl, she′s mine to keep"
I saved my baby from a devil's sleep
I looked at the sea, and it seemed to say (Hey, hey, hey)
