Cupid's Gift

A box of chocolates a rose in hand
Is now the symbol of love
Yes box no box maybe box
Check one of those listed above

Where does Cupid come from
Does Aphrodite live next door
All this love makes me dizzy
And it's Valentine's day once more

Trying to choose the perfect card
Is like pulling a tooth a day
It has to say I Love You
But in a very special way

So why do we need one day a year
To show our love this way
Shouldn't we say I Love You
And show them every day

Valentines is like Christmas for women and extra expense for men!
