A Certain Light

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 Is come up green and its 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, it'd 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 --- A Certain Light - Josh Ritter
