Analysis of Oh Valentine
I shall not need candy rings
To tell you why my heart sings
In my smile blooms a thousand carnations
To express my pink infatuations
I still remember that old oak tree
And those three words that set me free
Today and forevermore, I'll never let you go
Oh valentine, I love you so
