Lyrics of Like A Lover (O Cantador) by Sarah Vaughan
verse
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
verse
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
verse
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
verse
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
verse
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
Writer(s): Alan Bergman, Marilyn Bergman, Dorival Tostes Caymmi, Nelson Motta
