Valentine, my Valentine
Your voice like a welcoming song
Morning, noon, night. Always on my mind
In my darkest of days, You my sunshine
Could never do me wrong
Bitter-sweet Valentine
The birds stopped singing that day
The solemn tunes echoed, lost by noontime
The light in my life no matter how faded, sweet Valentine
I will never forget you, as far as the wind shall sway
When we are apart
You, my Valentine, own my heart
But please never return it
It's treasured, happy there
For it loves you more than life
I love you forever and always, beloved Valentine
