Parker’s Little Longboat

كلمات الأغنية

[Verse 1] Goodnight, Parker, sleep tight, my boy Lay your head by the firelight glow Small hands folded, brave and warm Rest your storm-bent bones tonight [Pre-Chorus] I’ll keep watch till morning Over your quiet shore The dark can knock But it won’t come in [Chorus] Sleep, my boy, sleep tight Drift on the calm tide Sleep, my boy, sleep tight Mama’s right beside you (Shh, my boy) (Soft as snow) [Verse 2] Your boots by the door, your cloak on the chair Little sea-king safe from the wind Dream of oars and silver waves Dream of home and blazing bread [Pre-Chorus] I’ll keep watch till morning Over your quiet shore The dark can knock But it won’t come in [Chorus] Sleep, my boy, sleep tight Drift on the calm tide Sleep, my boy, sleep tight Mama’s right beside you (Shh, my boy) (Soft as snow) [Bridge] If the wolves sing low I’ll sing louder If the snow comes down I’ll be your shelter Close those eyes Let the night pass through [Final Chorus] Sleep, my boy, sleep tight Drift on the calm tide Sleep, my boy, sleep tight Mama’s right beside you (Shh, my boy) (Soft as snow)
