Dressed up to impress
Roses, baby’s breath, got a
Bouquet floating in the perfect vase
Love notes, candy hearts
Candles, whole nine yards, feeling
Champagne bubbles when I see your face
Well I can dream, can’t I
That may not be my life
But every February
I get very lonely
2/14. I been super single and that ain’t my thing
Rather be a part of the romantic scene
I’d even settle for a late night fling
But I’m alone on 2/14
Couples everywhere having a damn good time
Looking for a lover. I’m like damn, where’s mine?
I don’t need any more reminding
That I’m alone on 2/14
Drinking coke and crown
Stove eyes stare me down,
I got Campbell’s boiling by the burnt grilled cheese
Thinking what I did
And didn’t to get left out like this
When I got more love than The Giving Tree
The thirst is real right now
It hurts to feel like wow,
Another February’s left me very lonely
2/14. I been super single and that ain’t my thing
Rather be a part of the romantic scene
I’d even settle for a late night fling
But I’m alone on 2/14
Couples everywhere having a damn good time
Looking for a lover. I’m like damn, where’s mine?
I don’t need any more reminding
That I’m alone on 2/14
Sitting on the window sill
Wonder if it’s all downhill
Is anybody feeling how I feel?
2/14. I been super single and that ain’t my thing
Rather be a part of the romantic scene
It’s enough to turn my brown eyes green
2/14. I been super single and that ain’t my thing
Rather be a part of the romantic scene
I’d even settle for a late night fling
But I’m alone on 2/14
Couples everywhere having a damn good time
Looking for a lover. I’m like damn, where’s mine?
And while the whole world’s smiling
I’ll be alone on 2/14
