I see a new you

A New You
By William Finn (music) and Ellen Fitzhugh (lyrics)

Baby, how the hours fly.
And baby, how the days go by.
Maybe you don’t notice but I
See a new you.
I see a new you.

Though I loved you from day one.
No, I loved you even before.
Since then everything you’ve done
Has made me love you even more.
How you lift your hand,
How you bend your knee,
How you simply stand,
How you reach for me.
Oh if you could see.

Baby, how the hours fly.
And baby, how the days go by.
Maybe you don’t notice but I
See a new you.
I see a new you.
Every day I do
I see a new you, baby.

Doesn’t seem you need so much.
Seems like love’s what helps you along.
A few smiles and hugs and such,
And then a hand to hold on strong.
How you tilt your face,
How you twitch your toe,
Makes my heartbeat race.
Oh you touch me so.
Someday you will know.

Baby, how the hours fly.
And baby, how the days go by.
Maybe you don’t notice but I
See a new you.
I see a new you.
Every day I do
I see a new you, baby.
I see a new, new you.
I see a new you.
