Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When I opened the door and saw
You smiling once again
I felt so lucky and so warm inside
Opened the door and saw, you smiling even though
The snow was blowing, it's so warm inside
[Verse 2]
Hey, I think I'm falling in love
I guess you didn't know
Hey, I think I'm losing my cool
In case it didn't show
[Verse 3]
But a habit of you
Would be hard to give up
A habit of you
Would be hard to give up
Yes, a habit of you
A habit of you could be hard
[Verse 4]
When I opened the box and saw
My orange birthday cake
I felt like crying, that's all I could do
[Verse 5]
When I opened the box and saw
My orange birthday cake
That's all that's left of mama's birthday boy
[Verse 6]
Hey, I think I'm falling in love
I guess you didn't know
[Verse 7]
But a habit of you
Would be hard to give up
A habit of you
Would be hard to give up
Yes, a habit of you
A habit of you could be hard to give up
[Verse 8]
When I opened the door and saw
You smiling back at me
I felt like crying, that's all I could do
[Verse 9]
When I opened the door and saw
You smiling back at me
That's all that's left of mama's birthday boy
[Verse 10]
Hey, I think I'm falling in love
I guess you didn't know
Hey, I think I'm losing my cool
In case it didn't show
[Verse 11]
'Cause a habit of you
Is hard to give up
'Cause a habit of you
Is hard to give up
'Cause a habit of you
A habit of you can be hard to give up
[Verse 12]
A habit of you is hard to give up
A habit of you is hard to give up
A habit of you is hard to give up
A habit of you is hard to give up
A habit of you is hard to give up
A habit of you is hard to give up
A habit of you is hard to give up
A habit of you is hard to give up
A habit of you is hard to give up
A habit of you is hard to give up
A habit of you is hard to give up
A habit of you is hard to give up
