Ai'Oon
Gianna Woods
On morning’s breath
And winter’s dew
My only thoughts
Are of you
I seek the warmth
Of your breast
To calm me down
And get some rest
Your eyes are bright
And your humor light
I seek your love
With all my best
Light of the world
Light of my life
Warm me up
And hold me tight
On night’s beams
And spring’s cries
I finally
Say goodbye
