Sleep, my baby girl, sleep
Don't be afraid of the world
'Cause I'm right here, I'm right
Sleep, my baby girl, sleep
When the wind picks up and the days get longer, I'll be here
Just when you start to think that you're all alone
But I'm right here, I'm right hereStranger ships will pass you in the night
Don't you worry, baby
It's alright, it's alright
You're the beacon, yeah, you're the light
Seen that same look
In your mother's eyes
In your mother's eyes
That's how I know that it's alrightMy only regret's taking so long
Finding these simple truths
So I could sing for youStranger ships will pass you in the night
Don't you worry, baby
It's alright, it's alright
You're the beacon, yeah, you're the light
Seen that same look
In your mother's eyes
In your mother's eyes
That's how I know that it's alright
