Softly I will leave you softly <br />For my heart would break if you should wake to see me go <br />So I leave you softly long before you miss me <br />Long before your arms can make me to stay <br />For one more hour or one more day <br />After all these years I can't bear the tears to fall <br />So softly, I will leave you there <br />So I will leave you softly <br /> long before you miss me <br />Long before your arms can make me to stay <br />For one more hour or one more day <br />After all these years I can't bear the tears to fall so <br />Softly, as I will leave you there <br />I will leave you there <br />I will leave you there <br /> <br />Songwriters: Giorgio Calabrese / Antonio De Vita / Harold David Shaper
