Sarah Vaughan - Like A Lover lyrics
[Sarah Vaughan - Like A Lover lyrics]
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
How I envy the cup that holds 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 river wind
Sighs and ripples it's 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 the cup that knows holds 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 it's embrace
Oh, how I dream
I might be like the velvet moon to you
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
How I envy the cup that holds 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 river wind
Sighs and ripples it's 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 the cup that knows holds 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 it's embrace
Oh, how I dream
I might be like the velvet moon to you
