SOFTLY AS I LEAVE YOU by Cliff Richard - live performance 1998 + lyrics

Softly I will leave you softly
For my heart would break if you should wake to see me go
So I leave you softly long before you miss me
Long before your arms can make me to stay
For one more hour or one more day
After all these years I can't bear the tears to fall
So softly, I will leave you there
So I will leave you softly
long before you miss me
Long before your arms can make me to stay
For one more hour or one more day
After all these years I can't bear the tears to fall so
Softly, as I will leave you there
I will leave you there
I will leave you there
