Analysis of Valentine's day

Karolina Marszałkowska 1993 (Gdańsk)



Finally tomorrow there is a Valentine's day
And I have so many things I'd want to say
But again... I am scared to share what I think
I know I'm a coward, not able to fight on a ring

I give up once more my chance for love
But I tried four times and what was it for?
I just ended hurt after Valentine's day
So how can I say what I want to say?

I remember right, the pain in my heart
Wicked smile's of men that tore it apart
I just had bad luck , and I always may
That's my personal curse of Valentine's day

I wish for love , but I can't reach
But I didn't have someone who was able to teach
Maybe I don't know how to find a way
To start enjoying Valentine's day
