I Love you Like a Flower Loves the Sun



When I wake up
And I need a place to run
And I look at you
I come back to where it had all begun

When I step out
And I see what I have done
And I love you
Like the flower loves the sun

When I feel it
I have no place to run
And I need you
Like the flower needs the sun

I can't give up
I have to get it done
And I love you
Like the flower loves the sun

And let the fiddler play his tune
And let the months begin with June
And let the dancers dance in the ball room
And let the fire smell like sweet perfume
