[Verse 1] Steal away child into your dreams    Where nothing is ever the way that it seems I gave you your life you gave me your trust    I’ve no wish to hurt you but hurt you I must     Steal away child turn down your light Steal away into the night [Verse 2] Steal away child to the land of the lies    Where love lasts forever and hope never dies Sit safe for a place peaceful and calm     Where no one and nothing can harm you      Steal away child you’ll be alright Steal away into the night [Bridge] Once more goodnight one last goodbye Trying hard not to show how I’m making what it’s taking not to cry [Verse 3] Steal away child sleeping so still    Our love is too precious for distance to kill But when you awake morning has come    I won’t be the one you turn to       I’ll do what I must before it gets light I’ll steal away into the  night [Outro] Steal away child you’ll be alright Steal away into the night
