Here is a version of the original song, done by Caroline Pennell on the show the Voice. It is a stunning rendition. I also wrote one more version of this song especially for this singer. It is my own favorite version of all three. I do want to acquire (purchase) the rights from Jack White to have Caroline Pennell do my other version. That is why I have not posted my other version here.
This first link is the live version from The Voice.

Spring is here - scents the air
You've come from somewhere
Moving in next to my home
Your aura blooms bright n' warm
I'm Already thinkin' here's a new friend
I'm Already thinkin' here's a new friend
Nice to meet a looker
Show you all the best spots here
I'll see my world through your eyes
Be free without need for a guise
It feels like I've met my lifetime match
It feels like I've met my lifetime match
We sit under a tree
Your words sing harmoniously
Time flies too quickly
Walking, talking, feeling tipsy
Even from here seems I feel your touch
Even from here seems I feel your touch
Joking, laughing hours spent
Licking ice cream - just content
Folks stare - it doesn't mater
Instant us just add water
You must believe in love at first sight
You must believe in love at first sight
Your image is ingrained in my mind
A daydreaming guy am I
Lost in you and me entwined
I wonder can you read my thoughts
As we lie under the sky
Our hands touch and my face lights up
Then you smile sweeter than syrup
We pick weeds you call them flowers
I am the questions you are the answers
I now know we are meant to be together
It feels like I've met my lifelong match
I am sure I have met my lifelong match

A Re-Write Of "We're Going To Be Friends"Lyrics
By The White Stripes (Jack White)
The Original Song is about a boy and girl still in school.
Jack White's rhyming scheme seems strange on paper
works beautifully when it is sung to its own tune.
This version has been rewritten and adjusted
so it could apply to any new relationship
