happiness was never so much of a lie
than forty years down the road when she looked into his eyes
this was supposed to last forever
how come it all went wrong?
the static on the radio drowned out the word
we deciphered everything, but no one else heard
the cry of the mother who would never hold her child
as the broken soul ascended to the sky
This is why I can't be your valentine
tonight, or tomorrow
time and time and time again I've tried to explain
the problems that came my way but to you it's all the same
I know you hoped to understand
but we are different, and I don't think that you can
the other day a stranger called my friend a name
it was so out of place but she did not complain
of course, it's not a crime
but it hurts 'cause she gets it all the time
This is why I can't be your valentine
tonight, or tomorrow
You keep pushing me away
and I don't even know what to say
but maybe at the end of the day
we'll be in a better place
... maybe not
