Speak Softly, Speak Slowly My Dear
Speak softly, speak slowly my dear.
For the night is ours to keep
While all the others sleep.
I hold on to each word you say
For I do not know how long you shall stay.
Each moment we have together seems to grow shorter and shorter.
And I will cherish each moment as we grow older and older.
So speak softly, speak slowly my dear.
For the night is ours to keep
While all the others sleep.
I hold on to each word you say
For I do not know how long you shall stay.
Each moment we have together seems to grow shorter and shorter.
And I will cherish each moment as we grow older and older.
So speak softly, speak slowly my dear.

I liked this, it felt classic and modern. We never know how much time we have and asking to enunciate those words felt just right.
Great work.
Great work.
