My new lover sweet and kind
The kind of lover that one rarely finds
And I'm happy for the first time in a long time
Came along and opened up the door
And though I know I've been in love before
Oh I feel it so much more than the last time
And she only looks like you
In a certain kind of light
When she holds her head just right
Its been winter for a while
The north winds wail cut like a baby child
It was hard to think or smile
That brings springtime
But it did and now it is
The green green grass has grown up green
and it's feeling just the way it did
The very first time
And she only looks like you
In a certain kind of light
When she holds her head just right

And anymore would stretch the rhyme
So let me leave this where I started
I'm just happy for the first time
In a long time
In a long time
