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
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
