Valentines



Valentines

I have no gift wrapped in pretty paper
I have no ribbons or bow
I’ve got a beating heart like thunder if you’d
Just give me a chance listening to a rain storm
In darkness I could lite your candles we could
Circle the sun
I can give you something a lifetime of dedication
Your name among stars

Drop of a tear I’d run to console
I’ll be there to protect you when your world turns upside down
I promise given on valentines
I can’t afford a skyscraper I have no string of pearls
I don’t own a gold mine I have no treasure to lay
Upon a pedestal at your feet I can offer you a highway
Of open dreams at times right words may slip my mind
Tell you one thing I’ll love you from forever on this
Valentines

 I’d pick up my old guitar to write you a love song
That no one’s ever heard before I’ll kneel before you
If you’d just take my hand I’ll never leave your side
Words I’ll hold so dear within my hands I’ll be your forever
I’ll guide you in heavy waves  when you can no longer see
Two hearts entwined we could make titanic rise again
This story line shall never be closed please let
Me kiss you ever so softly raise your glass of wine
For this love will never die I promise on this valentines
