Softly, As I Leave You - Shirley Bassey

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

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 (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

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
