Our Morning Song

In the soft light

Of a new day

We lie at last as one

In the company of love

 

For each other

And for this time

The special hour of dawn

Between wakefulness and sleep

 

The light streams in

Through the window

It sets for me the scene

Of a new day for loving

 

Each other darling

A day for us

To know each other more

And explore each others hearts

 

The shadows play

Upon the wall

Cast by those trees outside

And I smile at their dancing

 

That's so like both

Our dancing hearts

Which to some unheard song

Keep silent, single rythym

 

I see your hair

A river now

Flow upon the pillow

And I love with it to play

 

For how it feels

So soft to me

Like finest Eastern silk

A flowing, silky river

 

I kiss your eyes

You're still asleep

And your sweet lips murmur

How I'd love to wake you up

 

And quickly say

I love you dear

But now I let you sleep

And prolong this special time

 

I stroke your neck

So pale and fair

Again I see you stir

So I wrap my arms around

 

You my lover

My only one

I draw your body near

And mould it unto my own

 

So all morning

We'll lie like this

What better can we do

For we've fallen both in love

 

With each other

With this time

This breaking hour of day

And to this, our morning song.
