Like A Lover |
Like a lover the morning sun |
Slowly rises and kisses you awake |
Your smile is soft and drowsy |
As you let it play upon your face |
Oh how I dream I might be like the morning sun to you |
How I envy a cup that knows your lips |
Let it be me, my love |
And a table that feels your fingertips |
Let it be me, let me be the one |
Put an end to these lonely days and nights |
Without you |
Like a lover the river wind |
Slides and ripples |
Its fingers through your hair |
Upon your cheek it lingers |
Never having known a sweeter place |
Oh how I dream I might be like the river wind to you |
Like a lover the velvet moon |
Shares your pillow and watches while you sleep |
Its light arrives on tiptoe |
Gently taking you in its embrace |
Oh how I dream I might be like the velvet moon |
How I dream I might be like the morning sun |
How I dream I might be like the river wind the river wind |
How I dream how I dream I dream |
I might be with you |
How I envy a cup that knows your lips |
Or a table that feels your fingertips |
How I dream how I dream how I dream how I dream |
I might be with you |
