I know that I will not receive a card this valentine That none of those deliveries will bear a name that's mine.
But when I'm asked, as always I am asked this time of year. "Did you receive an unsuspecting note of love my dear"?
I'll force a smile, and wink and nod and say "I got a few" And all the while I'll wish that even part of that was true.
Releasing, in the quietness of home, a gentle sigh And hoping that next year I'll simply have no cause to lie. |
