Speak softly, lest the heartbeats be overheard,
Speak softly, lest the heartbeats be overheard.
Let no word stumble from your lips, for Time's hand
Will gather them, discerning.
The doors and walls have ears, they listen,
To the secrets whispered, every path they trace.
Speak softly, softly.
Speak in a way that the heart alone may hear,
And the eyes repeat the tale,
Speak in a way that the heart alone may hear,
And the eyes repeat the tale.
Let the world around,
Not even the breath's sound, intrude.
Not even the breath's sound, intrude.
Speak softly, lest the heartbeats be overheard,
Let no word stumble from your lips, for Time's hand
Will gather them, discerning.
The doors and walls have ears, they listen,
To the secrets whispered, every path they trace.
Speak softly, softly.
Come so close, today, that distance vanishes,
Come so close, today, that distance vanishes.
That in each other, we may be lost,
And no space, no gap, remain.
No space, no gap, remain.
Speak softly, softly.
Lest the heartbeats be overheard,
Let no word stumble from your lips, for Time's hand
Will gather them, discerning.
The doors and walls have ears, they listen,
To the secrets whispered, every path they trace.
Speak softly, softly.
