The Verna Cannon strange lullaby

Select language to translate this lyric

Come, sleep, take me
Ferry me right through this dark hour
Or I'll keep watch
Listening and shaking like a flower
The train roars by, strange lullaby
Water pounds on the roof and the ground outside
And all that's fine, that's what I like
But there's so much more
I smile too much and talk to strangers
More than I ought to knowing this world eventually
Leads lambs to the slaughter
Will I see danger in the eyes of another?
The face of evil once was fair to its mother
Maybe luck is on my side
Look at all the days that we survive
Each year I get more tired
But it's getting hard to sleep well at night
