Lyrics

(Do-bop, shoo-bop, a-bop-bop, do-bop, shoo-bop)
Speak low, when you speak love
Our summer day withers away
Too soon, too soon
Speak low, when you speak love, love, love
Our moment is swift, like ships adrift
We're swept apart too soon
Speak low, when you speak love
Love is a spark lost in the dark
Too soon, too soon
I feel wherever I go, go, go, go
That tomorrow is near, tomorrow is here
And always too soon
Time is so old and love so brief
Love is pure gold and time's a thief
But I'll wait (Wait), darling, I'll wait (Wait)
The curtain descends and everything ends
Too soon, too soon
I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait, darling, I'll wait
Will you speak low to me, speak love to me and soon?
Will you speak low to me, speak love to me (And soon?)
You gotta speak low when you speak to me of love
Speak low, speak low
Written by: Kurt Weill, Ogden Nash
