Like a lover the morning sun Slowly rises and kisses you awake Your 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 I might be like the morning sun Like a lover the velvet moon Shares your pillow and watches while you sleep Your eyes soft and drowsy As you let it play upon you face Oh... how I dream I might be like the velvet sun to you I might be like the velvet sun to you How I envy the 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 and end to these endless days and nights without you Like a lover the velvet moon 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 velvet moon to you I might be like the velvet moon How I envy the 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 and end to these endless days and nights without you 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 I might be like the velvet moon to you
