The Valentine Pieces

Lyrics

[Intro] If my lady pleases, at last This heart of mine drips color to the page In shades of love and rage A beggar's valentine [Verse 1] Sittin' by the window Lost in my old easy chair The romance is gone But the fire lingers on a while [Verse 2] Lookin' out the window I could be anywhere but I'm here With my face frozen into a smile [Chorus] The valentine pieces litter the floor of my room I should go get the broom [Verse 3] Anywhere the wind blows Is still such a long ways alone The castle will fall There'll be no one to stand by the throne [Chorus] The flowers and the candy litter the floor of my room I should go get the broom [Verse 4] Sittin' by the window Watchin' the sun goin' down Lost in a dream Life's just what it seems to be [Chorus] The valentine pieces litter the floor of my room I should go get the broom
