Speak Softly, Love

Speak softly, love, and hold me warm against your heart

I feel your words, the tender,trembling moments start

We're in a world, our very own

Sharing a love that only few have ever known

Wine colored days warmed by the sun

Deep,velvet nights when we are one

Speak softly, love, so no one hears us but the sky

The vows of love we make will live until we die

My life is yours, and all because

You came into my world, with love, so softly love.....
