In the 1970s Congregation

This British band was originally called The Congregation who had a Stateside No. 29 hit, but a UK No. 4  with Softly Whispering I Love You, on Signpost records.

The band consisted of Brian Keith and session singers only. It was a one hit wonder.

It was also a cover by David and Jonathon, who were really Roger Greenaway and Roger Cook they and named after the biblical characters.

Lyrics

Softly, whispering I love you,
Echoes of your voice are calling still through my dreams,
Softening the chill of the breeze.

Through my window,
I can see the moonglow,
Painting silver shadows on a rose-coloured land

A world that we walk hand in hand
In a day of gold
Coloured by the glow of new love.

Oh, Woman, I can feel your warm face ever close to my lips
and the scent of you invades the cool evening air.

I can close my eyes and you´re there in my arms still
And I know your soft kiss,
Turning into music every beat of my heart,

In The 1970s Congregation

Nope this not anything religious at all. This British band was originally called The Congregation who had a Stateside No. 29 hit, but a UK No. 4 hit with Softly Whispering I Love You, on Signpost records. The band consisted of Brian Keith and session singers only. It was a one hit wonder.

It was also a cover from David and Jonathon, who were really Roger Greenaway and Roger Cook they and named after the biblical characters.

Softly, whispering I love you,

echoes of your voice are calling still through my dreams,

softening the chill of the breeze.

Through my window,

I can see the moonglow

painting silver shadows on a rose-colored land;

A world that we walk hand in hand

in a day of gold

colored by the glow of new love.

Oh, Woman, I can feel your warm face ever close to my lips

and the scent of you invades the cool evening air.

I can close my eyes and you´re there in my arms still

and I know your soft kiss,

turning into music every beat of my heart,
