About

One of the most bittersweet and purely power-pop lyrics of the Replacements. Westerberg’s beautiful loser is spied from afar with a mix of spite and sadness.

Valentine Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, you wish upon a star
That turns into a plane
And I guess that's right on par
Who's left to blame?

[Pre-Chorus]
If you were a pill, I'd take a handful at my will
And I'd knock you back with something sweet and strong
Plenty of times, you wake up in February makeup
Like a fool and the morning star you're gone

[Chorus]
Tonight makes love to all your kind
Tomorrow's makin' Valentines

[Verse 2]
Hey, you pop up in this old place
So sick and so refined
Are you strung out on some face?
Well, I know it ain't mine

[Pre-Chorus]
If you were a pill, I'd take a handful at my will
And I'd knock you back with something sweet and strong
Trouble keeping your head up when you're hungry and you're fed up
Like a moon and a lonely star, you're gone

[Chorus]
Tonight makes love to all your kind
Tomorrow's makin' Valentines

[Interlude]
Hey!

[Pre-Chorus]
If you were a pill, I'd take a handful at my will
And I'd knock you back with something sweet as wine
Yesterday was theirs to say, this is their world and their time
Well, if tonight belongs to you, tomorrow's mine

[Chorus]
Tonight makes love to all your kind
Tomorrow's pickin' Valentines
Tonight makes love to all your kind
Tomorrow's pickin' Valentines
Valentines, valentines, valentines
