Celtic Woman - The Soft Goodbye Lyrics

Celtic Woman
Celtic Woman
The Soft Goodbye
Ahhhhhhhh - (repeats/chorus)

When the light begins to fade,
And shadows fall across the sea,
One bright star in the evening sky,
Your love’s light leads me on my way.

There’s a dream that will not sleep,
A burning hope that will not die.
So I must go now with the wind,
And leave you waiting on the tide.

Time to fly, time to touch the sky.
One voice alone - a haunting cry.
One song, one star burning bright,
Let it carry me through darkest night.

Rain comes over the grey hills,
And on the air, a soft goodbye.
Hear the song that I sing to you,
When the time has come to fly.

When I leave and take the wing,
And find the land that fate will bring,
The brightest star in the evening sky,
Is your love waiting far for me.

  I have just seen this song performed by them on their public TV concert, and it is one of the most beautiful and moving songs I have ever heard.
