Paper flowers paper dolls
The fingers of glue and string
The date they wish
The many good things in life
They want to keep promises
The starry eyes the dreaming minds
Smiling to the world on their own
It's them alone
Yet some aren't allowed to declare their love
There are hawks keeping an eye in the sky
They watch for any sign of wayward darkness
They say it is the work of the devil
Can you imagine it?
St Valentine married couples in love
Spend a romantic candles light glow
No interruption no religious overtone
Yet there are hounds
They want to smell the evil ways
They come with canes of virtue
They want to put marks on your face
It's in the mind
Where the evil dwells
Can't they see it?
They themselves are blind
Let the romance flow
It is what God intended us to do
Go forth and multiply
Stay on with the light
