C                 F/G
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#m7(b5)
And a table that feels your fingertips
          B7(b9)               Em
Let it be me, let me be your love
          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    (4x)

I might be like...
