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
