"Off to Sleep" Lyrics
Note: Couldn't find the lyrics anywhere online, and I decided to transcribe them. The lyrics below are from the OST; the live version has some minor word differences and verse 2 cut out. Enjoy!

Off to Sleep by Béatrice Martin (aka Cœur de pirate)

[Verse 1]
Time stood still for a while
Your hand was holding mine
The stars that shined in your eyes
Don't let them go by
Fly on you golden girl
And take on your fears
I'll be with you in your dreams
The world is darker than it seems

[Chorus]
And I'll be waiting for the light
That guides us through the worst of nights
And I'll be waiting for the sign
You're coming back
And you have found your path

[Verse 2]
I know that you've seen the worst
Your heart's been torn before
Those creatures won't let you go
So hang onto what you know
So sail on you golden girl
And fight against those fears
I'll be with you in your dreams
Of the world without a queen

[Chorus]

[Oh-oh-ing]

[Chorus]

[Chorus] + [Oh-oh-ing Intensifies]


Confirmations:
Still not convinced about that last line ("Of the world"), but oh well.

I think rather than "was smaller than mine", it is "was holding mine"

Yeah, it is. I found a live version of her singing. She's definitely saying "was holding mine".
I think the sentence "And I'll be waiting for the sign" should be "... waiting for the sun", then it is a repetition of the first line ("... waiting for the light") :)

I heard both OST and live versions a few times, and it sounds more like "sign" than "sun". Also, I don't understand what you mean by repetition of the first line. The entire thing is just the chorus and it gets repeated twice at the end of the song.

Sorry for the misusing of words. In the game Aurora need to find the "sun" which have vanished. And as the sun can provide "light" (which appears in the 1st line of that paragraph), I think it make sense.

Yeah, I think the chorus could have been better rearranged.

Thank you. I am looking for it for a long time.

awesome of you to take the time to do this.
Isn't it "Of a world" instead of "All the world" ?
