Like a Lover

Like a lover, the morning sun Slowly rises and kisses you awake You smile is soft and drowsy As you let it play upon you face Oh, how I dream I might be like the morning sun to you Like a lover, the river wind Sighs 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 * Oh, 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 your love ** Bring an end to the endless days and nights Without you (you, you, you, 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 to you, you, you Repeat *, ** Oh, how I dream I might be like the velvet moon to you
