O Valentine, Saint Valentine
oh valentine, saint valentine
I thought I'd put you in a rhyme
because your day is so divine
where flowers and candy make any girl cry
and all of the men compete or at least they all try
with blood diamonds in hand to put tears in her eyes
while the children that find them continue to die
and all i can ask myself is how when and why
did materials combine with the love we all share
showing we care
for each other
and just helping one another
every year on my oh-two-fourteen
I think of all the love i can bring
I think of friends and family
and all those who mean the most to me
and celebrate my love for them
and hope I see them all again
and with this thought I fondly grin
so remember life, is not about possessions
its about celebrating our love and progression
oh valentine saint valentine, I had to put you in this rhyme.
