My first music box played this tune… I was just a teenager. Beautiful melody that was soothing to the soul..
Speak softly, love
And hold me warm against your heart
I feel your words
The tender trembling moments start
We're in a world, our very own
Sharing a love that only few have ever known
Wine-colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly, love
So no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will live until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly love
Wine-colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly, love
So no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will live until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly love
Speak Softly Love is the Love Theme from The Godfather. The words are by Larry Kusik but the music itself is by Nino Rota.
It was originally sung by Andy Williams.
