Like a lover the morning sun 
C                 D/C        G/B 
Slowly rises and kisses you awake 
      A7/13             D7M 
Your smile is soft and drowsy 
               C/D            F7M 
As you let it play upon your face 
G/F        C                         F/G            C 
Oh, how I dream I might be like the morning sun to you 
                      G/F           C  
(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  
And I've never 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) 


C                                D/C 
How I envy a cup that knows your lips 
                 G/B 
Let it be me, my love 
                 G                F#m5-/7 
And a table that feels your fingertips 
          B7/9-               Em 
Let it be me, let me be your love 
          Em/D       Am7             C/D 
Bring an end to the endless days and nights 
   F/G 
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 a velvet moon to you 
(I might be like the velvet moon to you) 

Oh, how I dream I might be like a 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 
Its light arrives on tiptoe 
Gently taking you in its embrace 

Oh, how I dream I might be like a velvet moon to you 
(I might be like a velvet moon to you) 
I might be like a velvet moon to you 
(I might be like a velvet moon to you) 
I might be like a velvet moon to you 
(I might be like a velvet moon to you) 
I might be like a velvet moon to you 
(I might be like a velvet moon to you) 
I might be like................. FADE
