Speak Low Lyrics by Kiri Te Kanawa, Nelson Riddle

Blue Skies

[Verse 1]
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 away
[Verse 2]
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
[Bridge]
Time is so old
And love so brief
Love is pure gold
And time a thief
[Verse 3]
We're late, darling, we're late
The curtain descends
Everything еnds
Too soon, too soon
I wait, darling, I wait
Will you speak low to me
Speak lovе to me
And soon?
[Flute Solo]
[Verse 2]
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
[Bridge]
Time is so old
And love so brief
Love is pure gold
And time a thief
[Verse 3]
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?
