Softly whispering I love you Echoes of your voice are calling still from my dreams Softening the chill of the breeze Through my window I can see the moon glow Painting silver shadows on a rose coloured land A world we walk hand in hand In a day of gold covered by the glow of new love I can feel your warm face, ever close to my lips And the scent of you invades a cool evening air I can close my eyes and you're there You're in my arms still Oh I know your soft kiss Turning into music every beat of my heart When I hold you close to my heart And I hear your voice whispering I love you I can feel your warm face, ever close to my lips And the scent of you invades a cool evening air I feel you there in my arms still Oh I know your soft kiss Is turning into music every beat of my heart And I hear your voice whispering I love you Oh I know I need you I feel you there in my arms still I keep to forget I love you
