    Lyrics:
    Girl, it's been a long, long time comin'
    But I, I know that it's been worth the wait
    It feels like springtime in winter
    It feels like Christmas in June
    It feels like heaven has opened up it's gates for me and you
    And every time I close my eyes
    I thank the lord that I've got you
    And you've got me too
    And every time I think of it
    I pinch myself 'cause
    I don't believe it's true
    That someone like you
    Loves me too

    Mariah also loved it and wanted to do the background vocal.

    It feels like Christmas in June
    It feels like heaven has opened up
    its gates for me and you
    And every time I close my eyes
    I thank the lord that I've got you
    And you've got me too
    And every time I think of it
    I pinch myself 'cause I don't believe it's true
    That someone like you loves me too, yeah
    Girl, I think that you're truly somethin'
    Yes, you are, and you're every bit of a dream come true
    With you baby, it never rains and it's no wonder
    The sun always shines when I'm near you
    It's just a blessing that I have found somebody like you
    To think of all the nights I've cried myself to sleep
    You really oughta know how much you mean to me
