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 tou 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
