Oh what a love you have on valentine day
Sometimes you just don’t know what to say
But say it anyway
You put your foot in your mouth, but that’s okay
It’s for your mother, your wife, your children every day
You look in the mirror and what do you see
It’s you I hope in every way
A time to reflect on what you would say
On a day such as this, you see
In your mind your mother, your wife, your children for me
What a day this is that comes once a year
To give your love in every way
This day and throughout the year
No fear you see it is the heart of God
He has placed within you to give
On Valentine Day and throughout the year
A love you have on this special day.
