Songtext von Sleep

Sleep my child, sleep Your mother has gone away Sleep my child, sleep She won't be back this way Gone like the mist when kissed by the morning sun Gone, now she's gone And she, my only one God, give me courage To raise my little boy God, just some courage And replace my woe with joy True have I been And true I'll always be True, I'll be true if just to memories So sleep my child, sleep Your mother has gone away Sleep my child, sleep She won't be back this way Won't be back this way
