When Love...

When love is new it's something grand
A fleeting kiss a squeeze of hands
A knowing look you're flying high
And all at once nothing seems to matter
Just the new affair

As time goes by you understand
There's more to this than holding hands
It feels like she has always been
Close by your side
And nothing seems to matter
Just the new affair it feels like you
Just want to live day after day
This lucky situation that's come your way

When love is old it's like a song
The words are bare the music's wrong
And like a flower
That slowly dies and fades away
Leaving no trace at all of the new affair

Seems to me this time it's gonna be
An everlasting love now's the time to choose
You either win or lose a lasting love

Seems to me this time it's gonna be
An everlasting love now's the time to choose
You either win or lose a lasting love
As time goes by you understand
There's more to this than holding hands
It feels like she has always been
Close by your side
And nothing seems to matter
Just the new affair

It feels like you just want to live
Day after day this lucky situation
That's come your way
