Goodnight, sweet ladies

Goodnight, sweet friends

You lie but sleepingSomeday we will meet again

Sweet ladies

Goodnight, sweet friends

You lie but sleeping

Someday we will meet again

With rosemary green and bright

You′re not forgotten. Eternal night

Can't fade your memory, dim your light

You′ve made a difference, you've won your fight

We lift our branches, and though we weep

No death could conquer, you only sleep

Goodnight, sweet ladies

Goodnight, sweet friends

You lie but sleeping

Someday we will meet again

Goodnight, sweet ladies

Goodnight, sweet friends

You lie but sleeping

Someday we will meet again

Sweet ladies

Goodnight, sweet friends

You lie but sleeping

Someday we will meet again

With rosemary green and bright

You're not forgotten. Eternal night

Can′t fade your memory, dim your light

You′ve made a difference, you've won your fight

We lift our branches, and though we weep

No death could conquer, you only sleep

Goodnight, sweet ladies

Goodnight, sweet friends

You lie but sleeping

Someday we will meet again

Let no voice falter, let die no flame

Let all remember your every name

Let faces turn to the starry sky

Let songs be sung till our throats are dry

Let no voice falter, let die no flame

Let all remember your every name

Let faces turn to the starry sky

Let songs be sung till our throats are dry

Dry

Dry

Four o′clock, four o'clock

Never let me sleep

Four o′clock, four o'clock

(The art of suicide, nightgowns and hair)

Never let me sleep

(Curls flying every which where)

I close my eyes and pray for the garish light of day

(The pain to pure to hide)

(If I burn, you will see)

Like a frightened child I run from the sleep that never comes

(Bridges of sighs meant to conceal lovers′ lies)

(The fire in your mind, when you sleep)

Under the arches of moonlight and sky

(I pray for the garish light of day

Like a frightened child I run from the sleep that never comes)

Under the arches of moonlight and sky
