Softly As I Leave You

Softly, I will leave you softly

For my heart would break

If you should leave

And see me go



So I leave you softly

Long before you miss me

Long before your arms beg me to stay

For one more hour

For 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

For 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 you there

As I leave you there
