Valentine

[Verse 1]
Love, you look at me
In that restaurant on the Boulevard Saint Denis
The starry light, the darkest night
Friday, the 14th of February

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And the candle's burning low, and your eyes are full of fear
And you're trying very hard, but I see through your veneer
That you don't believe in us, that the end is very near
And you pour another glass, but you don't want to be here

[Chorus]
Hearts are made of paper and they're red like wine
But you're never gonna be my valentine
Anything is sweeter said in Hallmark rhyme
Even the saddest goodbye; you're never gonna be mine

[Verse 2]
All the birthday cards and birthday cakes
And Christmas cards and summer breaks
Don't matter now, don't mean a thing
Can't change your mind, don't wear your ring

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And the candle's burning low, and your eyes are very green
And you're trying very hard not to make a scene
Not to let it show, but I think I'm gonna scream
'Cause I already know

[Chorus]
Hearts are made of paper and they're red like wine
But you're never gonna be my valentine
Anything is sweeter said in Hallmark rhyme
Even the saddest goodbye; you're never gonna be mine
