When you're bombarded with the hearts and flowers
And the pink and red and white
Don't take it hard during these lonely hours
Cause it's gonna be all right
As romantic strains of music fill the air
And something deep inside you screams cause I'm not there
Just know I'm all too familiar with this brand of pain
Yet we must look ahead to the day we'll meet again
When you look at the red, red rose
Don't you see that's my heart, bleeding for you
My love for you is deeper than the crimson of the petals
And I promise you this: I'll always be true
So it's okay to give in to the pain of the rose
Cause it takes blood to gain anything great
And as you bathe your eyes in the rich, dark colour
Be happy — it's Valentine's Day.
When lovers pass you on the street, embracing each other
And you're not sure what it is you're longing for
Well it's not what those everyday couples have found
You're on the edge of so much more
And when you see them giving gifts to show their love
Read the small green card with a promise from above
Hold your half of a heart and hope that soon we will be
Together as one so we can finally run free
When you're tasting the chocolatey sweetness
Don't you know that's our lives, blessed so richly by One
Who is eager to see us healed and renewed
And desires to give us the best kind of fun
So go on and get lost in the flavourful moment
Cause it will only get better with time
And as you savour the wonderful goodness of chocolate
Be happy — you're my Valentine.
And though Valentine's Day may fade into night
And the stars might well be obscured, hidden from sight
Within our pain-wracked hearts, love forever will shine
Cause you'll always be my Valentine.
