To me you are the sunlight
That does fill my every day,
The warmth you have the joy you give
Each smile a golden ray,
You rise within the morning
And you shine through clouds above,
When sunsets of the evening glow
The treasure of my love.
To me you are the river
That does flow towards the sea,
Where'er you go I'll follow for
It's where I long to be,
So pure unto my wanton lips
Abandoned now to you,
The heartbeat of each ripple casts
A spell on all I do.
To me you are the mountains
For so beautiful your sight,
To see you stand before me there
Does fill me with delight,
As if were made in heaven and
A vision in the sky,
They will live on forever like
Our love that shall not die.
To me you are the moonlight
That does rest upon the lake,
So softly through the darkness there
Until the dawn does break,
When once more you will rise again
And colour you shall bring,
For when you shine across the land
The birds for love shall sing.
