Le Desir 
  du Soleil
  
I wish I was the sun
  So I could bathe you 
  in my rays of love
  
  I wish I was the sun
  So my fingers could caress
  your soft cheeks, and my arms could
  envelop you in their warmth
  
  I wish I was the sun 
  So that my very presence
  made you warm
  and a lick of my tongue 
  upon your skin would make you hot
  
  I wish I was the sun
  So I could shine upon your day,
  and light you a clear path to happiness
  
  I wish I was the sun
  So that I could cast a shadow
  upon your fears,
  and shine the rays that create
  the rainbow bridge to your 
  dreams and desires
  
  I wish I was the sun
  because I could shine my 
  golden light upon your hair
  and watch you sleep--
  You're always most beautiful 
  in this light
  You breathe a sigh of contentment
  in your slumber and a slow smile
crawls across your face
  
  As if an angel has touched upon you,
  you stretch your chin up toward the sky, 
and your body trembles with the tremors
only love and sleep can bring
  
  I wish I was the sun
  because I could kiss you now and 
  I could lie beside you and rest my head
  upon your breast
  
  I wish I was the sun,
because if I were, my lips 
  would make you thirsty and your 
  skin would beg for more
  
  If I were the sun, I'd be
  the only one in your world
  and I would shine for only you.
