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.
