Baby's eyes, are never red Stars are bending down, they're dead Sleeping flowers, blue and gold In my basket, never cold Fetch me water from my well When you hear the wedding bell In the darkness of the cave Lay my basket on my grave Take the poison from my ears Swim the ocean of our tears
Fetch me water from my well When you hear the funeral bell Deep above the clouds and breezes Find me in your fondest dreams Baby's eyes are always blue And all my love belongs to you Baby's eyes are never red In my hammock, rest your head Rest your head, rest your head
