Abstract We proposed a global spin-dependent potential energy function which fits the description of the non-relativistic quark model. The spin dependencies of our model result from the harmonic approximation of the Gaussian function in the spin-spin component. The approximation enables us to obtain analytical solutions of the bound states for the heavy mesons singlet and triplet states using the conventional Nikiforov-Uvarov method. The obtained mass spectra and expectation values for the low through high-lying quantum states are in agreement with the results obtained for other potential functions in the existing literature. The splitting of the masses occurs at a distance greater than the obtained characteristic radius of the heavy mesons which were found to be within the experimentally observed . The proposed potential model may be extended to obtain other meson spectroscopic parameters such as the decay constants, wave function at the origin and electromagnetic radiative transitions.
