Lyrics
She brings you a new smile
For new lovers do smile
She tempts you and you smile
A new love is told
She brings you some new thrills
Some tender and true thrills
But after a few thrills
A new love is old
When two alluring eyes
When two reassuring eyes implore you
And when you understand
Sweet arms full of wonder stand before you
Take what she offers and be gay
Love hates a man who runs away
Hot eager lips can smother
Thoughts, that recall another day
She brings you a new smile
For new lovers do smile
She tempts you and you smile
A new love is told
She brings you some new thrills
Some tender and true thrills
But after a few thrills
A new love is old
