[Verse 1] The petals tremble in your hand Like little wings that cannot fly A silver mist rolls through the land And paints a teardrop on the sky The world is louder than it seems So let me keep this moment still I'll fold you gently in my dreams And shelter you from every chill [Chorus] You are the whisper of the morning, darling A little light the dark can't steal You are the softness in the silence, darling The quiet truth I almost feel And if the wind should call you yonder If all the stars should lose their glow I'll hold the beauty of this moment And love you softly in my soul. [Verse 2] The butterfly upon the vine Has only borrowed wings of blue And every fleeting thing divine Must find a sky it never knew So let the raindrops kiss your face Let every wild breeze set you free Some things were never meant for keeping Yet leave their colors in the sea [Chorus] You are the whisper of the morning, darling A little light the dark can't steal You are the softness in the silence, darling The quiet truth I almost feel And if the wind should call you yonder If all the stars should lose their glow I'll hold the beauty of this moment And love you softly in my soul. [Bridge] I won't ask the rose to stay When autumn calls its name Some beauty lives a single day And never blooms the same But somewhere underneath the snow Where sleeping roots remember spring The things we loved don't disappear They change into another thing [Final Chorus] You are the whisper of the morning, darling The fragile light upon the sea You are the dream the dawn remembers The sweetest part of being free And if the wind should call you yonder And take you where I cannot go I'll bless the sky that let me find you And love you softly in my soul Outro Love you softly in my soul yea Love you softly in my soul
