Lyrics
Softly, as in a morning sunrise
The light of love comes stealing
Into a newborn day
Flaming with all the glow of sunrise
A burning kiss is sealing
The vow that all betray
For the passions that thrill love
Lift you high to heaven
Are the passions that kill love
And lead you down to hell
Same old story
Softly, as in an evening sunset
The light that gave you glory
Will take it all away
For the passions that thrill love
And lift you high to heaven
Are the passions that kill love
And lead you into hell
Same old story
Softly, softly, as in an evening sunset, sunset
The light that gave you glory
Will take it all away
Say, Richard, I don't wanna be a drag or anything
But the title of this tune is "Softly", so could we do it that way, please?
Softly, softly, as in an evening sunset, sunset
The light that gave you glory
Will take it all away
Writer(s): Oscar Hammerstein, Sigmund Romberg
