When you are young and in school
to get a Valentine is very cool.
Bringing Valentines for the whole class,
getting only one back, is a pain in the ass.
When you’re slightly older and dating is hard,
you hope for chocolates or a romantic card.
In a sexy red dress, don’t forget the red heels,
he borrows his dad’s car with its nice shiny wheels.
The older you get, Valentine’s Day can be a thorn.
Is this the one? Will he propose?
All dressed up and looking pretty —
these shoes are really hurting my toes.
A blast from the past comes back into your life.
A phone call, butterflies, is he really the one?
He kisses you, you kiss him, your hearts beat together.
Candy, cards, even roses without thorns.
Yes, he is the one!
So, be My Valentine forever and a day.
We can face life together, whatever comes our way.
Finding there is nothing to fear,
Our love grows each passing year.
Happy Valentine’s Day… again.
