Lyrics for Valentine
You didn't see my valentine I sent it via pantomime While you were watchin' someone else I stared at you and cut myself It's all I'll do 'cause I'm not free A fugitive too dull to flee I'm amorous but out of reach A still life drawing of a peach I'm a tulip in a cup I stand no chance of growing up I've made my peace I'm dead, I'm done I watched you live to have my fun I root for you, I love you You, you, you, you I root for you, I love you You, you, you, you I made it to a dinner date My teardrops seasoned every plate I tried to dance but lost my nerve I cramped up in the learning curve I'm a tulip in a cup I stand no chance of growing up I'm resigned to sail on through In the wake of tales of you I root for you, I love you You, you, you, you I root for you, I love you You, you, you I root for you, I love you You, you, you You, you, you, you I root for you, I love you You, you, you
