Singing Softly to Me Songtext
von Kings of Convenience

Things seem so much better when
They′re not part of your close surroundings
Like words in a letter sent
Amplified by the distance
Possibilities and sweeter dreams
Sights and sounds calling form far away
Calling from far away

I didn't know you then, now did I girl?
I couldn′t hear you singing softly to me
I didn't know you then, now did I girl?
I didn't see the brave girl so near me
I didn′t know you then, now did I girl?
I couldn′t hear you sing softly to me
Sing softly to me


I wanted a mystery that couldn't be solved
I wanted a puzzle with pieces missing
I wanted a story that couldn′t be told
Only the fishing part of fishing

I didn't know you then, now did I girl?
I couldn′t hear you singing softly to me (to me)
I didn't know you then, now did I girl?
I didn′t see the brave girl so near me
I didn't know you then, now did I girl?
I couldn't hear you sing softly to me
Sing softly to me

And now I find it was you all the time

In love again, love again, it′s too late
Now, I′m in love again, love again, it's too late
Now, I′m in love again, love again, it's too late
Now, I′m in love again, love again, it's too late
Now, I′m in love again, love again, it's too late
Now, I'm in love again, love again, it′s too late
Now, I′m in love again, love again, it's too late
Now, I′m in love again
