It's not a store-bought card that matters
But the words you mean to say
And I think you put it perfectly
When you say it everyday
It's not an annual reservation
At a fancy-schmancy place
But trips to our favorite joints
Where I can freely stuff my face
It's not the occasional vacation
To a plush, romantic place
It's spending every night together
In each other's sweet embrace
It's not the lavish gift of diamonds
Or an exorbitant bouquet
But priceless effort behind the daily grind
That undeniably conveys
Just how much you truly love me
In your own peculiar way
And since you do it all the time
I bet you'll keep it up today
Have a happy, HAPPY Valentine's Day!

And since you do it all the time
