Speak Low (Kurt Weill)

from Fooled By Yesterday by Emily Bezar

lyrics

Lyrics by Ogden Nash

Speak low when you speak love
Our summer days wither 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, everything ends
too soon, too soon
I wait, darling, I wait
Will you speak low to me, speak love to me and soon?
