Elvis Presley – Softly As I Leave You lyrics
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 kiss me
Long before your arms
Can beg me stay
For one more hour
Of 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
