Lonely Valentine
1998
I had a vision, my dream will come true
Someday I’ll wake every morning in bed next to you
Together we’ll rise to embrace the new day
Even when we’re apart in my thoughts you will stay
You’ll free my love by the light of the stars
From my prison of fear with old memories for bars
The sound of your voice will comfort my soul
To which anger and pain has taken its toll
After sharing with you our first candlelight kiss
Loving any other would surely be remiss
With my faith renewed, I’ll uncover my heart
And release the self-doubt I’ve clutched from the start
Your tender caresses will help me to see
How special it is for me to be me
I’ll shield your heart from unbearable harms
As you drift off to sleep wrapped up in my arms
But for now I’m left wandering this world all alone
With no one to soften my heart turned to stone
One day I’ll hold you and you’ll be forever mine
Until then I’ll just be your lonely valentine
