Certain Light - Josh Ritter
Got the stream off of NPR - can t say enough good stuff about the album! This is
the first song that stuck with me off it. Picking or strumming either way - Josh
plays it both ways! Hope you enjoy it.

My new lover, sweet and kind
the kind of lover that one rarely finds
and i m happy for the first time in a long time
came along and opened up the door
and thought i know i ve been in love before
though i feel it so much more
than the last time
and she only looks like you
in a certain kind of light
when she holds her head just right
It s been winter for awhile
the north winds will cut like a baby child
it was hard to think her smile
could bring the springtime
but it did, now it is
the green green grass has come up green
and it s feeling just the way it did
the very first time
and she only looks like you
in a certain kind of light
when she holds her head just right
-------Instrumental------

and anymore would stretch the rind
so let me leave this where i started
and i m just happy for the first time
in a long time
in a long time.
