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.
