Softly, I will leave you softly For my heart would break If you should wake and see me go So I leave you softly, long before you miss me Long before your arms can beg me stay For one more hour or one more day After all the years, I can't bear the tears to fall So, softly as I leave you there
(Softly, long before you kiss me) (Long before your arms can beg me stay) (For one more hour) Or one more day After all the years, I can't bear the tears to fall So, softly as I leave you there As I leave I you there As I leave I you there
