[Verse 1] Gently your eyes met mine Tender, trusting, true Gently your hand took mine Thrilled me through and through [Verse 2] Gently, oh so gently Gentle as the dawn Gently, oh so gently Our true love was born [Verse 3] Gently your lips kissed mine As we strolled along Gently your heart touched mine Young and warm and strong [Verse 4] Gently the hour is near When true loves have to part Gently we'll meet again One more kiss, sweetheart
