[galliard_maiden]

Why should thy cheek be pale,
Shaded with sorrow's veil?
Why should'st thou grieve me?
I will never, never leave thee.
'Mid my deepest sadness,
'Mid my gayest gladness,
I am thine, believe me;
I will never, never leave thee.

Life's storms may rudely blow,
Laying hope and pleasure low:
I'd ne'er deceive thee;
I could never, never leave thee.
Ne'er till my cheek grow pale,
And my heart pulses fail,
And my last breath grieve thee.
Can I ever, ever leave thee!

Curl up, close your eyes and sleep
Sleep through the dark of night
Sleep till the morning light
Curl up, close your eyes and sleep

Curl up, close your eyes and dream
Think of the want you feel
Dream now, and dream it real
Curl up, close your eyes and dream

Tomorrow the world will be yours
Tomorrow will be so fine -
The heavens will smile, the sun will shine
Tomorrow the world will be yours

Curl up, close your eyes and sleep...
