Lyrics

He came with the breeze
She told everyone, in the cold
She would hold him and sing a song
Sweet little anna, singing her sad, sad song
To her beautiful boy that giggled so sweet

The days went by until one little night
With this one little moon hanging in its black
Sweet little anna, whispered her goodnight song
In the ear of the boy who giggled so sweet

"My baby, my beauty, my boy, my baby
What is your favourite song of all songs?
Sweet baby, my love, my darling, my baby
Forever your rosie little lips won't turn blue

I won't let nights hurt you
I won't let them take you
Take my hand and we'll run up that tree

I won't let days hurt you
I wont let them break you
If so my little heart will die
If so my tears will freeze and turn grey."

He just stared in her hardworking arms
His rosie little lips had turned blue
Sweet little anna, chanted her goodnight song
For her beautiful boy that giggled so sweet

"My baby, my beauty........"

They took the boy who giggled so sweet
Frozen grey tears glanced on her cheek
And the goodnight song
She never stopped singing
Danced from her lips
Down the dark grey street

"My baby, my beauty........"
