Lyrics for ---> (ii)

I hear you I hear you call I pity you I am your friend I am not cruel give me your hand you will sleep so softly in my arms when love breaks free from sorrow a new star shines a new star shines three roses, half red, half white they will never wither the angels they shed their wings and fall rest well rest well close your eyes you will rest with me until the river drains into the sea I'll make a bed for you the softest pillow come, rest everyone will sing for you for you I will protect you from the hunter, from the forest from the flowers, from your dreams from the wicked girl, from her shadow I will keep your eyes covered I will protect you good night, good night
