Valentine's Day Without You

 

Well my Love it’s Valentine’s day again,

it’s not like it was back then!

I can remember when we first met,

it was a day I’ll never forget!

I was in Chicago and it was quite windy,

I guess that’s why they call it the Windy City!

I seen you walking down the street,

and said to myself: That girl sure looks sweet!

The wind grabed some papers from your hands,

and to meet you I seen my chance!

I managed to chase them down,

then said: You’re the prettiest girl in town!

I asked you out and you said: I like Chinese,

and I replied: Any place your pleased!

We went to a place called Chi Phong Phat’s,

that was where the best was at!

Later we went dancing,

and spent the whole night romancing!

It was love at first sight,

I often think of that night!

I’ve been so lonely since God took you from me,

today would’ve been our eleventh Anniversary!

I still go and buy roses for you on this day,

but now I put them on your grave!

I know when the time comes and I pass,

I’ll be with you again in Heaven at last! 

But for now all I can do,

is reminisce of how I loved you!
