Faded Valentine

Faded Valentine -Chantal Chamberland

I don't want to lead

This faithful heart of mine

Once more 'round the circle and back here every time

It ends the same

Alone again

I recall so well

That old familiar game of kiss and tell

I lose every time

I don't wanna be

Your faded valentine

Years have come and gone count them on my face

No matter where I wander I'm back here in this place

And I can't explain why I'm here again

I should learn by now

God knows you taught me how to live alone

After all this time

I don't wanna be your faded valentine

So I go

What difference does it make

I shall return

And in the end

I'll pretend there is some lesson I have learned

And all the mysteries one life can unravel

Stretch out for miles

But not one step I travel

And we again we part as friends

To meet someday

And wonder what became of plans we made

Way back in our prime

I don't wanna be

Your faded valentine
