Lyrics
Love came to me, gay and tender
Love came to me, sweet surrender
Love came to me
In bright romantic splendor
Fickle was she, faithful never
Fickle was she and clever
So will it be forever, forever
Refrain:
Softly, as in a morning sunrise
The light of love comes stealing
Into a new born day, oh!
Flaming with all the glow of sunrise
A burning kiss is sealing
The vow that all betray
For the passions that thrill love
And lift you high to heaven
Are the passions that kill love
And let you fall to hell
So ends the story
Softly, as in an evening sunset
The light that gave you glory
Will take it all away
