Valentine's Day - Klaus Nomi

Lovehearts exchanging with tongues passing movement

Making the single ones eke

Searching the streets for cupids spare arrow

Because my future looks bleak

Down-trodden luck in self centred answers

When no is the nicest reply

Four walls subsiding in my head, which is confused

Think im ready to die

Valentines Day, It just gets in the way

My heart hurts like a broken bone

Valentines Day, How can i celibrate

When im going to bed all alone

The build up is numbing for 24 hours

And i celebrate when it ends

The lonley ones cry or tend to smile wry

An unpositive message it sends

Cards being swapped and flowers being topped off

With chocolate shaped as hearts

My only thought, as the lucky kids taunt

How a ludicrous idea like this starts

Valentines Day, It just gets in the way

My heart hurts like a broken bone

Valentines Day, How can i celebrate

When im going to bed all alone
