Night And Day
It's like I'm hit by Cupid's dart -
Are romantic words enough?
I wish I were your sweetheart
And your trusted one true love...
To me, your smiles are sunshine
And to me, your tears are rain...
If you were my Valentine,
Then you'd not hear me complain.
I wish I were your hero,
Your champion till life's end -
He who fought against the foe,
Defiantly as your friend.
I wish I were a painter,
An artist of great renown,
To me, there's nothing quainter
Than to paint you in your gown.
I wish I were a sculptor,
Like a craftsman with my hands -
Somehow to capture rapture
That each lover understands.
I wish I were a singer,
Like some brilliant baritone -
So I could be the bringer
Of great love songs yet unknown.
I wish I were a poet,
All your beauty to convey.
I want the world to know it,
Like I know it... night and day...
