Heaven stirring in my bed
Raising up your pretty head
Like an angel in distress
And after all this time
Baby, you're still the best

And it's always like the first time
Every time we touch
You feel so new to me
And it's always like the first time
Every time we kiss
Baby, what you do to me?
Ooh

Sometimes when I look at you
I can't believe all we've come through
'Cause you're prettier today
And when you walk in the room
You still take my heart away

And it's always like the first time
Every time we touch
You feel so new to me
And it's always like the first time
Every time we kiss
Baby, what'd you do to me?

And it's always like the first time
Every time we touch
You feel so new to me, new to me
And it's always like the first time
Every time we kiss
Baby, what'd you do to me, do to me?

It's always like the first time
Every time we touch
You feel so new to me, new to me
Ooh
Ooh
