Gordon Lightfoot
Softly (1975 Version)
[Verse 1]
Softly she comes
Whispers the breeze with her passing
In secret love she is laughing
Softly she comes in the night
[Verse 2]
Softly she sighs
Sweetly she lies never sleeping
Her fragrance all in my keeping
Softly she comes in the night
[Bridge]
Down the darkened hall
I hear her footsteps on my stair
And she is in my arms once more
[Verse 3]
Softly she goes
Her shining lips in the shadows
Whisper goodbye at my window
Softly she goes in the dawn
Softly she goes in the dawn
