Gently

Softly she plays Gentle as her gaze Wakes up to the sun Her day has begun Voices outside Questions in her eyes Everything seems new When you're beautiful and true And gently, gently Gently, gently Beats her heart Stands at the gate Hasn't learned to hate Happy and unknown In a garden made of stone Go sleep in hills Oh, golden daffodils Just a memory Of some forgotten dream And gently, gently Gently, gently Beats her heart Softly she plays Gentle as her gaze Her father takes her hand And leads her down the path Feet tread the ground Hardly make a sound And with the Autumn sun October's almost gone And gently, gently Beats her heart
