D-DU-UDU
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 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
 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. . .
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 to you
I  might be like the velvet  moon to you
I  might be like the velvet  moon to you
