and multiple other artists



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
