Sleep, my love, as the morning draws near
I'll comfort and hold you; whisper in your ear
We're safe; don't worry, I'll be here
All through the night
Close your eyes, you're going to be alright
The stars and the moon are in your sight
While the melodious birds are in flight
All through the night
Sleep, my love, for I am keeping
My dear one-the dark clouds are creeping
While the weary world is sleeping
All through the night
Close your eyes, you're going to be alright
The stars and the moon are in your sight
While the melodious birds are in flight
All through the night
Sleep, my love, resting on my shoulder
This sacred night is getting colder
But don't lose hope, we're getting bolder
All through the night
Shut those tired eyes, you're going to be alright
Hold on to this fight, hold onto me tight
Just keep your thoughts on tomorrow's light
All through the night
