Speak Low Lyrics
Kurt Weill / Ogden Nash Speak low when you speak, loveOur summer day withers away too soon, too soonSpeak low when you speak, loveOur moment is swift, like ships adrift, we're swept apart, too soonSpeak low, darling, speak lowLove is a spark, lost in the dark too soon, too soonI feel wherever I go that tomorrow is near, tomorrow is here and always too soonTime is so old and love so briefLove is pure gold and time a thiefWe're late, darling, we're lateThe curtain descends, ev'rything ends too soon, too soonI wait, darling, I waitWill you speak low to me, speak love to me and soon
Billie Holiday Speak Low
