Lyrics of Like a Lover by Stacey Kent
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 could 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
chorus
How I envy a cup that nears 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 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
chorus
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
chorus
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
outro
I might be like the velvet moon to you
outro
I might be like the velvet moon to you
Writer(s): Alan Bergman, Marilyn Bergman, Dorival Tostes Caymmi, Nelson Motta
