No Cartier, no Tiffany, no Lexus or Corvette.
I ask you not to make me wish that we had never met.

Wanna give me something for which you won't be sorry?
How 'bout copies of 'Freeze Frame' by that dear Ilona Saari?

Please don't send an ecard with baby chicks and bunny.
Above all, no text message with CUL8R Honey.

Maybe just a hug and kiss, a sweet embrace to say
'Will you be my Valentine' forever and today?
