Some Belated Valentine's Day Thoughts...

Several years ago, I wrote a song called "Valentine's Day" for Julia's Rain.

We recorded a demo, but never put it on an album, although we did play it live several times.

The lyrics are sure to bring a smile to the faces of lovers everywhere!

So, in the interests of spreading good feelings around the globe, here they are:

"I wish that I could be free
from this string of one night affairs,
I long for someone to look at me
but all they ever do is stare,
And no one ever stays here
long enough to say,
"I love you, my dear"
to me on Valentine's Day.

I wish that someone would rescue me
from the prison that holds my heart,
I long for someone to promise me
that we'll never be apart,
But no one ever stays here
long enough to say,
"I love you, my dear"
to me on Valentine's Day.

I dream of someone to help me escape
from this common cage,
he'll set me free and we'll run away
to be together on Valentine's Day,
but no one ever stays here
long enough to say,
"I love you, my dear"
to me on Valentine's Day,
on Valentine's Day..."

You should see the lyrics to the song I wrote about Christmas!
