Softly

Softly they came down

They told me there'd be another way

But I feel there's no way around it

We've been swallowed

For so many years

I've lived to be free

To let the color of the sea

Push and pull at me

But change is here

Oh, change is here

Oh, change is here

Oh scared like a child

By her mother's side

Oh with the swallows

We all will surely fly

Oh, change is here

Oh, change is here

Softly we let go

They told me it would be better now

Oh honey, what do they know

It's softly we let go

Dusk is upon us

The night can be long

It's quiet and still there's no rushing dawn

But change is here

Oh, change is here

Oh scared like a child

By her mother's side

Oh with the swallows

We all will surely fly

Oh, change is here

Oh scared like a child

By her mother's side

Oh with the swallows

We all will surely fly

Oh, change is here

Oh, change is here
