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,
Were 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 a thief.


We're late,
Darling we're 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.
