I’ve been wearing lace and opening windows

For the breeze to drift in and blow out my sorrows

It feels like I’ve finally righted my wrong,

The last time I thought of you was writing this song.

 

The good times I’ll hold, but not very tightly

The sun hits my skin as I sing outside - brightly.

I breathe through my nose and hear the birds tweet

This born-again honeybee’s growing so sweet.

 

Something about this new me is really quite lovely.

Something about this new me is really quite lovely.

Something about this new me is really quite lovely.

Something quite lovely has come back to me.

 

Your memory dirtied the frame, so I broke it

And made the shattered glass a lovely mosaic 

To go on the floor of my flowering garden

Which has grown almost as much as my smile.

 

I wear silk scarves now 

and learned to play the flute

Drink water from a champagne glass

Go to the park to eat some fruit.

 

Something about this new me is really quite lovely.

Something about this new me is really quite lovely.

Something about this new me is really quite lovely.

Something quite lovely has come back to me.

 

I’ll protect my peace and build a world I like

I’ll rewrite my journal and ride my bike.

Who I am now is who I always wanted to be

This is the sound of a woman who is once again free.

 

Something about this new me is really quite lovely.

Something about this new me is really quite lovely.

Something about this new me is really quite lovely.

Something quite lovely has come back to me.

 

Something about this new me is really quite lovely.

Something about this new me is really quite lovely.

Something about this new me is really quite lovely.

Something quite lovely has come back to me.
