Softly now, please be gentle with my heart
Breeze and silence never were so profound
Hold me close, sing my song from the start
Defy the skies, cry your prayers aloud
Trust in me, in the road up ahead
I promise safety in the hours of my stead
So revel in my love, I will fill you to the brim
I promise you the world of no blood—not grim
Trust in my soul, in the paths not taken
Defy the fate that tells you you're forsaken
Hold me tight for we must never part
Breeze of summer, should love stay or depart?
Softly now, I will be gentle with your heart
