John Gary - 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 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
As I leave you there
As I leave you there
