Like A Lover

(albüm: The Island - 1989)

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

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 a river wind to you

How I envy a cup that knows your lips
Let it be me, my love
And the 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
Its light arrives on tiptoe gently taking you in its embrace
Oh! How I dream
I might be like the velvet moon to you

How I envy a cup that knows your lips
Let it be me, my love
And the 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
Its 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 morning sun to you
I might be like the river wind to you
