Lyrics:

Speak low when you speak, love
Our summers day
Withers away
Too soon, too soon

Speak low. When you speak, love
Our moment is swift
Like ships adrift
We're swept away too soon

Speak low, darling, speak love
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'll wait, darling, I'll wait

Will you speak low to me
And love
And soon?
[Instrumental Solos}
