love is like a newborn child

love's beginning

hearts enchanted

full of bright new dreams

but we can't take love for granted

for to me it seems. a new love is like a newborn child

tender and sweet

and in need of care;

precious indeed is the love we share

like a newborn child

like a tiny baby

'til it grows up strong

you lullaby a new love

with a happy song

because a new love is like a newborn child

cherish and guard it

and hold it close;

give it your heart

and just pray it grows

and grows

to be something sure

something grand

something heaven must have planned

like a lovely newborn child

like a newborn child
