"Someone else’s Valentine"
I don’t know when it was she realized she was alone
Thinking it over now , this is how I remember
…in a kitchen , looking over the mess left there then
took a sip of a coffee from the night before , it was cold
time goes by unnoticed
looking in the mirror after a cool bath , a hot shower
she noticed she is growing old
tears held back while painting on her face
a phone rang in the bedroom caused a leap inside
Like fear , but only for s second
an old mans gravel voice saying hello
was the tv , a soap opera left on for company
during her not so busy day , more time goes by unnoticed
She plays along pretending to be happy when he comes home
Certainly they will go out tonight , together alone
The children raised , grown and gone with lives of their own
a silence the empty house wont let her forget
And since they’ve gone , no regrets
I wonder if she ever thinks of me , if she wonders the way I do
Love conquers all , this cant be true
If you can hear me , shadow me echo
Bonnihuuz
