The Valentine’s Day song

By Bryant Oden 

I made a special valentines card for a girl I like
I gave it to her in class with all the rest
I watched her open it out of the corner of my eye
She read it then went right on to the next
I felt so broken hearted we were over before we started
I guess she didn’t like what I wrote, I spent forever on that stupid
love note.
It said:
I’m glad you and I are friends and I hope that never ends
But I’ve been thinking we could be more
That’s what Valentine’s Day is for 

Then I noticed my best friend Christy was smiling at me
She was holding the card she wasn’t supposed to be
She walked right over and got really close to me
I never noticed it before but her eyes were pretty 

She said: I’m glad you and I are friends and I hope that never ends
But I’ve been thinking we could be more
That’s what Valentine’s Day is for 

Then my heart started pounding and my knees went weak
My best friend Christy kissed me on my cheek (with her lips!)
I felt so happy hearted, look at what my mess up started
I took her hand and said: 

I’m glad you and I are friends and I hope that never ends
But suddenly I’m thinking we could be more
That’s what Valentine’s Day is
That’s what Valentine’s Day is for
