Softly, gently, I will let you down

'cause I don't love you

In the same way now

I can hold you but not with lover's arms

'cause you are more of

A brother to me now

And I can lie ne t to you,

But I can't lie to you

So walk into the sun and

Watch me run into the rain

For you the future's easy, so don't

Weep, for me it's getting steep

I loved you for e actly who you are

And I'd say you've come

The nearest yet by far

And I can lie ne t to you,

But I can't lie to you

So walk into the sun and

Watch me run into the rain

For you the future's easy, so

Don't weep, for me it's getting

Steeper and in the dark

That's where I want to be

Deeper, I'm going somewhere

You won't want to see

So walk into the sun and

Watch me run into the rain

For you the future's easy, so

Don't weep, yes I will watch you

Walk into the sun and watch

Me run into the rain drops

For you the future's easy, so don't

Weep, for me it's getting steep
