Softly As in a Morning Sunrise

Lyrics

Softly as in a mornin' sunrise The light of love comes stealing Into a newborn day Flamin' with all the glow of sunrise A burning kiss is sealing The vow that all betray For the passions that thrill love Lift you high to heaven Are the passions that kill love And lead ya down to hell Same old story Softly as in an evenin' sunset The light that gave you glory Will take it all away For the passions that thrill love And lift you high to heaven Are the passions that kill love And lead ya into hell Same old story Softly, softly as in an evenin' sunset, sunset The light that gave you glory Will take it all away "Say Richard, I don't wanna be a drag or anything But the title of this tune is 'Softly' so could we do it that way, please?" Softly, softly as in an evenin' sunset, sunset The light that gave you glory Will take it all away
