Valentines Day
 

I released a large red baloon
Into the air today
A valentine to my love
Who has gone away

Reach out and catch it
I sent it to you
It has my heart on it
Till I can bring it ti you

You knew I didn't like candy
You gave me you heart instead
Flower don't last they die to soon
You gave me hugs and kisses instead
 

You made me a wooden heart
That hangs on the wall
Saying don't eat my cookies
I love you Dad

If the string was long enough
I'd hang on real tight
And deliever the hugs and kisses
To you my love myself

Valentines day is over
I felt your love from above
Your hand was so soft and gentle
Like the touch I remember so well.
