Softer Than A Whisper

Intro: Verse I’ve often wondered how love would strike me dead Would it hit me like thunder that’s what I’d expect But when I held you, I knew it was different from the start No words were spoken, but I felt it in my heart It was softer than a whisper quiet as the moon But I could hear it loud as laughter ’cross a crowded room It was gentle as a baby’s hand, but it held me like a chain It was softer than a whisper when love called out my name Instrumental Verse Last night you lay sleepin’ when I thought I heard a sound I got up and slowly took a look around Well I found no answer no sound I could explain It must have been your heart dear; calling out my name It was softer than a whisper quiet as the moon But I could hear it loud as laughter ‘cross a crowded room It was gentle as a baby’s hand, but it held me like a chain It was softer than a whisper when love called out my name It was softer than a whisper when love called out my name
