Walk Softly - Marlena Shaw

Time is all important to everything

It seems to be an ongoing thing

When you’re dealing with pain

Love and the fact that you’ve lost it When I met you, I was introduced to love and

After a period of time I came to be friends with pain

I’ve dealt with these emotions and I hope that I’ve come through

So if you don’t mind

Walk softly when you walk by me

'Cause my heart is still, don’t shake it up Now that I’ve cried my love to sleep

(Cried my love to sleep)

Don’t wake it up, don’t wake it up

(Don't wake it up)

Now that I’ve cried my love to sleep

(Cried my love to sleep)

Don’t wake it up, don’t wake it up

(Don't wake it up, ooh)

If I seem distant and reserved when we meet

Don’t take the time to ask me, why

'Cause it’s bad enough that I’ve lost you

Ohh, don’t make it rough, ohh, just say hello and goodbye

Tip toe when you pass by me

'Cause my heart is still, don’t shake it up Now that I’ve cried my love to sleep

(Cried my love to sleep)

Don’t wake it up, ooh, don’t wake it up

(Don't wake it up)

Yeah, I just cried my love to sleep

(Cried my love to sleep)

Ooh, don’t wake it up, don’t wake it up

(Don't wake it up, ooh)

I fall apart each time I look in your eyes

Remembering things I should forget

Ooh, my love’s a spark but it could burst into flames

'Cause I’m not over you yet

Walk softly when you walk by me Ooh, my heart is still, don’t shake it up Now that I’ve cried my love to sleep

(Cried my love to sleep)

Ooh, don’t shake it up, don’t wake it up

(Don't wake it up)

Ooh, baby, now that I’ve cried my love to sleep

(Cried my love to sleep)

Don’t wake it up, don’t wake it up, yeah

(Don't wake it up)

(Now that I’ve cried my love to sleep)

I’ve cried my love to sleep

Don’t wake it up, ooh, don’t wake it up

(Now that I’ve cried my love to sleep)

Yeah, I just cried my love to sleep

Don’t wake it up, please, don’t wake it up
