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

So I will 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
As I leave you there
As I leave you there
