Song by Kurt Weill and Lotte Lenya<br /><br>

Kurt Weill / Ogden Nash <br>

<br>

Speak low when you speak, love<br>

Our summer day withers away too soon, too soon<br>

Speak low when you speak, love<br>

Our moment is swift, like ships adrift, we're swept apart, too soon<br>

Speak low, darling, speak low<br>

Love is a spark, lost in the dark too soon, too soon<br>

I feel wherever I go that tomorrow is near, tomorrow is here and always too soon<br>

Time is so old and love so brief<br>

Love is pure gold and time a thief<br>

We're late, darling, we're late<br>

The curtain descends, ev'rything ends too soon, too soon<br>

I wait, darling, I wait<br>

Will you speak low to me, speak love to me and soon<br>

<br>
