Speak (G7)low

that our mo ment is (Fmaj7)swift, to like ships a (C7)drift, we’re swept a (F6)part

too soon.

(D)Speak (G7)low

dar ling, speak (G7)low,

love is a (G7)spark (C)lost in the (C)dark

too (F6)soon,

too soon.

(D)Speak (F)soon.

(Fm7)Time is so old

and (Db)love

so brief,

(Ebmaj7)love is pure gold

and (Bm7)time

(E)a (C7)thief.

We’re (Gm7)late,

Will you speak (G7)low to me, speak (Gb)love to me and (F6)soon?
