The Valentine’s Day song

By Bryant Oden

 

I made a special valentines card for a girl I like

I gave it to her in class with all the rest

I watched her open it out of the corner of my eye

She read it then went right on to the next

I felt so broken hearted we were over before we started

I guess she didn’t like what I wrote, I spent forever on that stupid

love note.

It said:

I’m glad you and I are friends and I hope that never ends

But I’ve been thinking we could be more

That’s what Valentine’s Day is for

 

Then I noticed my best friend Christy was smiling at me

She was holding the card she wasn’t supposed to be

She walked right over and got really close to me

I never noticed it before but her eyes were pretty

 

She said: I’m glad you and I are friends and I hope that never ends

But I’ve been thinking we could be more

That’s what Valentine’s Day is for

 

Then my heart started pounding and my knees went weak

My best friend Christy kissed me on my cheek (with her lips!)

I felt so happy hearted, look at what my mess up started

I took her hand and said:

 

I’m glad you and I are friends and I hope that never ends

But suddenly I’m thinking we could be more

That’s what Valentine’s Day is

That’s what Valentine’s Day is for
