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..."
