Billie Holiday - Speak Low

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, too soon,

I feel 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, ev'rything ends

Too soon, too soon,

I wait, darling I wait

Will you speak low to me,

Speak love to me and soon.
