SOFTLY AS I LEAVE YOU
(Hal Shaper / Antonio DeVita / Giorgio Calabrese)

Frank Sinatra / Matt Monro
Bobby Darin
Elvis Presley


Softly, I will leave you softly 
For my heart would break 
if you should wake and see me go. 

So I leave you softly, 
long before you miss me 
Long before your arms can beg me stay 
For one more hour 
or one more day. 

After all the years, I can't bear the tears to fall 
So, softly as I leave you there. 

Softly, long before you kiss me 
Long before your arms can beg me stay 
For one more hour 
or one more day. 

After all the years, 
I can't bear the tears to fall 
So, softly as I leave you there 
As I leave I you there 
As I leave I you there.
