Like a lover, the morning sun
Slowly rises and kisses you awake
Your smile is soft and fuzzy

As you let it play upon your face

Oh, how I dream

I might be like the morning sun to you
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
I might be like the river wind 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 your love
Bring an end to the endless days and nights
Without you


Like a lover, the velvet moon
Shares your pillow and watches while you sleep

It's light arrives on tiptoe
Gently taking you in its embrace


Oh, how I dream
I might be like the velvet moon to you
I might be like the velvet moon to you


Oh, how I dream
I might be like the river wind to you

I might be like the river wind 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 your love

Bring an end to the endless days and nights
Without you


Like a lover, the velvet moon
Shares your pillow and watches while you sleep
It's light arrives on tiptoe

Gently taking you in its embrace

Oh, how I dream

I might be like the velvet moon to you
I might be like the velvet moon to you
I might be like the velvet moon to you
