Sing Softly, Sing Sweetly

lyrics

Tonight was the first night I
watched the sun set in a while.
I saw all of these summer lights
and counted each one.

We would lay down in bed
and sing to the moon.
The crickets would sing back
the melody we love.

I'll hope that the moon
didn't forget about us.
I'll serenade the stars
in hopes that you'll overhear it.

(Chorus)
Sing softly
for the life behind your eyes.
Sing sweetly
for the girl behind your skies.
I will chase the horizon
for however long I can.
I will see her happy
even if it takes my life from me.

In the pond beside me,
your face reflects.
Don't you ever disappear 'cause
that smile's my everything.
My throat's closed up and I
can't even speak.
This train is draining me
as it takes me away.

(Chorus) x2
Sing softly
for the life behind your eyes.
Sing sweetly
for the girl behind your skies.
I will chase the horizon
for however long I can.
I will see her happy
even if it takes my life from me.
