Not this Valentine's
A thousand long stem roses I will not receive
A thousand daisies will not be in my fancy
A thousand orchids of all kinds will not find there way to my Devine
Ten thousand bottles of the finest wine will not be mine
Not a love note one, not a dinner to wait upon
A thousand long stem roses of all kinds
A thousand daisies
A thousand orchids of all kinds
Exotic flowers and a thousand chocolates
Not this Valentine's
No proposal no love not nothing to wait upon
Not this Valentine's
A thousand long stem roses of every color Devine
A thousand lilies just maybe
A thousand daisies one can only wish for
A thousand orchids of all kinds
Ten thousand bottles of the finest wine
Will it finally be mine?
Not this Valentine's
No new dress to buy
Oh a thousand long stem roses a thousand daisies a thousand lilies and orchids
One day it will all be mine
Just not this Valentine's
