Last Friday I was chatting with someone. They challenged me to quickly write a Valentine’s Day song. And so I offer the song below.
The challenge came at about 5:45am. At 6:40 I sent them the lyrics minus the bridge. I added the bridge at lunch. I’m pretty happy with it.
I’ve included the lyrics below the video.
Valentine’s Day
Copyright © 2014 – Matthew Moran
Verse
Playing a show on Valentine’s Day
Watching the lovers throw their hard earned cash away
They can’t know what I know
That love it comes and love it surely goes
Chorus
Whoa sweet music capture me
If I give it all to you, will you take it all away
I don’t need relief and I don’t need to be okay
Just help me hide the truth about love, on this Valentine’s day
Verse
She said, “I’m leaving, you’ll never change”
And I must admit she’s right cuz I still feel the same
I still believe in love and she still haunts dreams
But somewhere along the way we forgot what forever means
Bridge
Do you know what you did to me?
I can’t see straight and I can’t look away
But I’m not seeking an apology
Just a place to hide my heart… on Valentine’s Day
