I watch the valentine parade

roses and hearts and lemonade

couple and couple, hand in hand

requesting love songs from the band

they all get up to dance

i'd love to join them if i only had the chance


old man is staring at the moon

his life has come and gone too soon

in boxes on the attic floor

love letters sent before the war

at least somebody cared, however long ago

there's no nostalgia when there's no past to know


i'm still young

but it still passed me by

i'm still young

and it still passed me by

the valentine parade
