I could be a mother
I could be a lover
I could be a grandma

I could be a daughter
Swimming in the water
I could be a dream

Could I be the meaning?
Could I be the feeling?
That you've long been seeking

Could I be a monarch
Flying high above
The western sea?

Hold me without warning
Love me like the morning
Tangerines and honey
So long as the Sun does rise

Could I be the Moon
That's shining down
As you lay awake again?

Could I be the lighthouse
On the rocky shore
Could I be the waves?

Could I be a brother?
Be some other man
Who came and went?

I could be the music
In the still of night
Could I be the wind?

Hold me without warning
Love me like the morning
Tangerines and honey
So long as the Sun does rise

Could I be the blue?
Or be the mystery
Beyond the starry night?

Could I be the truth
That you've been trying to speak
But haven't found the words?

Could I be the madness?
Could I be the roses?
In their quiet eyes

Could I be a goose
Up in the autumn sky?
Or be nothing?

Hold me without warning
Love me like the morning
Tangerines and honey
So long as the Sun does rise
