softly, as i leave you

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 make me stay

for one more hour or one more day

after all the years

i can't bear the tears to fall

softly as i leave you there

oh one more day

after all the years

i can't bear the tears to fall

softly as i leave you there

as i leave you there

as i leave you there
