LOVE CAME TO ME,

GAY AND TENDER,

LOVE CAME TO ME,

SWEET SURRENDER;

LOVE CAME TO ME

IN BRIGHT ROMANTIC SPLENDOR.

FICKLE WAS SHE,

FAITHFUL NEVER;

FICKLE WAS SHE

AND CLEVER,

SO WILL IT BE FOREVER,

FOREVER,

[Chorus]:

SOFTLY, AS IN A MORNING SUNRISE,

THE LIGHT OF LOVE COMES STEALING

INTO A NEW BORN DAY, OH!

FLAMING WITH ALL THE GLOW OF SUNRISE,

A BURNING KISS IS SEALING

THE VOW THAT ALL WILL BETRAY.

FOR THE PASSIONS THAT THRILL LOVE

AND LIFT YOU HIGH TO HEAVEN,

ARE THE PASSIONS THAT KILL LOVE

AND LET YOU FALL TO HELL!

SO ENDS EACH STORY.

SOFTLY, AS IN AN EVENING SUNSET,

THE LIGHT THAT GAVE YOU GLORY

WILL TAKE IT ALL AWAY!
