Writing the pain away on Valentine’s

i don’t need a valentine

i’ve already got enough things on my mind

if stealin my heart is a crime

then you would be locked up for a very long time

i want to say how I feel about you

but where would I begin

i got no clue

i just wanna ask for a table to two

so i could enjoy time just talking with you

seeing your smile sends shivers down my spine

but i have been alone for such a long time

i want there to be change but I don’t even have a dime

I just have to keep telling myself

I don’t need a valentine.
