Paroles de Meadowsweet
I packed my bags and headed south on my vacationI spoke your name out loud on more than one occasion
Singing “Oo Valentine, you been on my mind”
I keep a meadow full of all of my relations
Their petals bloom and fall and turn like constellations
Singing “Oo, Valentine, you been on my mind”
I keep the backseat full of books and conversation
I fill the gas tank up and call you from the station
Singing “Oo Valentine, you been on my mind”
Oh you, Valentine, you been on my mind
I stayed awake for three days writing you a novel
Three-hundred-sixty pages, smoke and empty bottles
For you, Valentine, you been on my mind
I painted scenery that takes me back to August
I been alone for weeks but darling, if I’m honest
It’s you, Valentine, you been on my mind
Oh you, Valentine, you been on my mind
I keep a journal full of notes and observations
I fill the margins up with poetry and patience
For you, Valentine, you been on my mind
Oh you, Valentine, you been on my mind
I keep the backseat full of books and conversation
I fill the gas tank up and call you from the station
Singing “Oo Valentine, you been on my mind”
Oh you, Valentine, you been on my mind
I stayed awake for three days writing you a novel
Three-hundred-sixty pages, smoke and empty bottles
For you, Valentine, you been on my mind
I painted scenery that takes me back to August
I been alone for weeks but darling, if I’m honest
It’s you, Valentine, you been on my mind
Oh you, Valentine, you been on my mind
I keep a journal full of notes and observations
I fill the margins up with poetry and patience
For you, Valentine, you been on my mind
Oh you, Valentine, you been on my mind
