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're 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 near
Tomorrow is here and always too soon
Time is so old and love 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
Will you speak low to me?
Speak love to me and soon
Time is so old and love 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
Will you speak low to me?
Speak love to me and soon
Speak low
