Speak Low

Speak low when you speak, love

Our summer day withers away

Too soon, too soon

Speak low when you speak, love

Our moment is swift

Like ships adrift, we've swept apart

Too soon

Speak low, darling

Speak low

Love is a spark, lost in the dark

Too soon, too soon

I feel wherever I go

That tomorrow is here

Tomorrow is near

And always too soon

Time is so old

And love's so brief

Love is pure gold

And time's a thief

We are late, darling, we are late

The curtain descends

Everything ends

Too soon, too soon

I wait, darling, I wait

When you speak low to me

Speak love to me and soon

Speak low

Speak low
