[Verse]

Love's always lovely when first two lovers meet

Hand in hand, arm in arm, walking down the street

Always seen together in everything they do

Love is always pretty when it's new


[Verse]

Love is always special, especially to the heart

When it's love on sight and all is right and there's no doubt from the start

And before it starts to crumble, there'll be many shades of blue

Ah but love is always pretty when it's new


[Verse]

Love is always pretty when it's new

It has nothing bad about it till your lover says, "we're through"

And old love's even sweeter, that old saying is really true

Love is always pretty when it's new


[Verse]

Love is always pretty when it's new

It has nothing bad about it till your lover says, "we're through"

And old love's even sweeter, that old saying is really true

Love is always pretty when it's new
