Sadly, Softly Beautiful

©2003. Erica Molz

She hides behind the shadows of her sadness

Afraid to feel the sun upon her face

One time she let the heat of love consume her

He left her heart in ashes, and stole her trust in love away

(Climb)

But there's something in her eyes

Lord, I have to try

To lead that woman back to love again

(Chorus)

She's sadly, softly beautiful

With wonders hidden deep

I know her heart holds secrets

She's aching not to keep

Sadly, softly beautiful

Please tell them all to me

I watch her standing quiet in the moonlight

Fragile eyes reveal the way she feels for me

A smile plays across her lips, then fades

A moment of faith, but she's not ready to believe

(Climb)

But there's something in her eyes

Lord, I have to try

To lead that woman back to love again

(Repeat Chorus)

(Chorus - changed)

Sadly, softly beautiful

With wonders hidden deep

I know your heart holds secrets

You're aching not to keep

Sadly, softly beautiful

Sadly, softly wonderful

Please tell them all to me
