It’s Different Now - Clodagh Rodgers

I used to think that when you fell in love, love would never change
But it’s different now
And to those, who never been in love, this may seem very strange
But it's so different now
I used to wonder if the feeling that we had would last and never fade away
But it's different now, it changes every day.
I used to look at you and tell myself how wonderful you are
But you’re so different now
For to me, you’re much more wonderful, more wonderful by far
Yes, you’re so different now.
There’s more to love than holding hands and stealing kisses
When you think that there’s no one else around.
There’s the good times and the bad, there’s the ups and downs we’ve had
But it’s different now, now I’m so glad I still have you...
For I know you so well and before I can tell
What you’re thinking before you think it yourself
And I’m so happy to say you feel the same about me.
It’s a look in the eye or a smile on the face
It’s a tear that you cry and a hair out of place
It’s you as you are and not what you should be.
There’s always something new to see
I look at you, you look at me, and we’re so different now
Love gets better every day, and, in some peculiar way, it’s always different now.
And, if we ever said goodbye, you’d be lost and so would I
And that’s the difference now
Between a love just for a day
And a love that’s here to stay
That’s the difference now, the difference now...
For I know you so well and before I can tell
What you’re thinking before you think it yourself,
And I’m so happy to say you feel the same about me.
It’s a look in the eye or a smile on the face
It’s a tear that you cry and a hair out of place
It’s you as you are and not what you should be.
For I know you so well and before I can tell what you’re thinking before you think it yourself, and I’m so happy to say you feel the same about me...:
