One day I awoke…

 

 

One day I awoke…
and the Sun was reaching for the sky
and it stopp’d when I opened my eyes
wondering, “How could anything so far
so brightly glow from down below..”

What the Sun didn’t know
as he sent down a beam
to spy in my window, (la-la-la-la-la)
that all of my fires were lighted in dreams
of you, la-ho-ho!
When you call me to…
to you, call me…

“Come down and lay
with me baby
come hear my body laugh
crying a song of life
come here and see
what treasure, what pleasure is…
lying with me!”

And the next thing I know
was the Sun, still wondering why,
sent a ray to come down and spy
mingling with the single ever brightly
burning light that had become an eye…!

But the Sun didn’t know…
But the Sun didn’t know…

That there is an alien affliction that haunts me
blows through my window, fells me, a tree!
Governs my motives and tortures and taunts me
and looks just like you
When you call me to…
to you, call me…

“Come down and lay
with me baby
come hear my body laugh
crying a song of life
come here and see
what treasure, what pleasure
is lying with me!”

And everyday since then,
the Sun, enamored of my eyes
in content no more in the sky
hovering like a lover in despair
delighted just to stare
just to be there…

Jealous of you and your mortal perfection
the light of my eyes are only for you
who opened the door to somnolent affection
when you called me to
to you… called me to
called me…

“Come down and lay
with me baby
come hear my body laugh
crying a song of life
come here and see
what treasure, what pleasure
is lying with me!”
