Speak Low - 1952 Version
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
I feel that 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
I wait, darling, I wait
Will you speak low to me, love to me?
Speak soon
Time is so old, and love so brief
Love is pure gold, and time a thief
Late, darling, we're late
The curtain descends, everything ends
Too soon, too soon
I wait, darling, I wait
Will you speak low?
Will you speak love, darling, and soon?
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
I feel that 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
I wait, darling, I wait
Will you speak low to me, love to me?
Speak soon
Time is so old, and love so brief
Love is pure gold, and time a thief
Late, darling, we're late
The curtain descends, everything ends
Too soon, too soon
I wait, darling, I wait
Will you speak low?
Will you speak love, darling, and soon?
