Valentine

Valentine
 
 
Love fills this one special day
 
 
Once a year in comes my valentine
 
 
It just so happens to be today
 
 
I am so thankful you are mine
 
 
I don’t need a present or flowers my love
 
 
What I crave has nothing to do with money
 
 
I need your arms surrounded me with a hug
 
 
Just through your lips words that call me honey
 
 
I really just need you by my side
 
 
Take my hand in our living room and lets dance
 
 
Lets not go out but tonight stay inside
 
 
Lets capture this moment and take a chance
 
 
Lets remember what kind of our love
 
 
We had before we drifted apart
 
 
Tonight, closer together we will move like a pair of doves
 
 
And remember we were blessed with a new start
