Never did she know of such a time,
Never did she have a chance to shine,
For a country girl they were magic words,
"Will you be my valentine"
Suddenly from nowhere, flowers came,
With an invitation, but no name,
"To the royal ball, I hope you'll come,
And be my valentine"
To the royal ball then, on her own,
With the lords and ladies bowing low,
and noone came to take her by the hand,
"Where is my valentine"
Someone to love me,
Someone to care for me,
Someone who'll always be here by my side.
So into the garden with her tears,
Sobbing in the moonlight, no one near,
Startled by a whisper in the dark,
"Will you be my valentine"
"Many people long to be well known,
I'm always in a crowd but so alone,
When I saw the way you smiled at me,
I dreamed you would be mine"
Someone to love me,
Someone to care for me,
Someone who'll always be here by my side.
Many years have gone since their wedding day,
They're living on the land, the simple way,
And for their little children tell the tale,
of "Be my valentine"
Someone to love me,
Someone to care for me,
Someone who'll always be here by my side.
