Softly lyrics

[Intro]
Softly (Mmmmm)
Softly (Mmmmm)
Softly (Mmmmm)

[Verse 1]
Oh lover, why you got me clobbered?
Frustrated and bothered
Paranoid that you’ll destroy my colour
And paint it, cover it and fade it
Leave me looking jaded
Why do I still love you when I hate this?

[Verse 2]
Got me keeping quiet
But you know I wanna talk about it
I don’t wanna have to hide it
I need somebody to confide in
Don’t let me stow it away
‘Cause I can barely fight it
It’s a constant ache when i’m reminded that
You never call my telephone
But you know we’re both alone
What is it you’re holding on to?
Because there is something wrong
I understand that you may never want me close
But understand that..
[Chorus]
I need you the most
I spread my love
Along your path so
Please tread softly
Please tell me you won’t go stomping harshly
You don’t have to want me
But please tread softly
Softly...
Softly...
Softly...
(Softly)

[Verse 3]
Oh, karma
Why do I even bother?
When you never wanna stick with me
Instead of choosing others to favour
You know I can’t hate her
For watching him go chase her
When nothing he could do could ever phase her

[Verse 4]
Got me sick and tired
Of the sneaking and the lying
But god knows that i’m trying to stay
But she’s denying that she ever fell in love
With the pages of his mind
But she didn’t wanna be in his cages all the time
Forgive me if you find me replaying it in my head
You saying what you said
Words I wish I never read
‘Cause I...
I......
[Chorus]
I need you the most
I spread my love
Along your path so
Please tread softly
Please tell me you won’t go stomping harshly
You don’t have to want me
But please tread softly
Softly...
Softly...
Softly...
Softly (Yeah, yeah)

[Bridge]
Oh no uh, oh no uh, oh no uh
Just please tread softly
Oh no uh, oh no uh, oh no uh
Please tread softly

[Chorus]
I need you the most
I spread my love
Along your path so
Please tread softly
Please tell me you won’t go stomping harshly
You don’t have to want me
But please tread softly
Softly (Oh no)
Softly (Softly)
Softly...
Softly (Yeah, yeah)
