Softly, As I Leave You

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.
