Happy Valentine's Day /early

My funny Valentine
Sweet comic Valentine
You make me smile with my heart
 
My funny Valentine
Sweet comic Valentine
You make me smile with my heart
 
Your looks are laughable
Unphotographable
Yet you're my favourite work of art
 
Is your figure less than greek
Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak
Are you smart? (yeah)
 
Don't change a hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay, little Valentine, stay
Each day is Valentine's day
 
Is your figure less than greek
Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak
Are you smart? (yeah)
 
Don't change a hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay, little Valentine, stay
Each day is Valentine's day
 
[Sting - My funny Valentine]

Down in the cellar in the Boho zone
I went looking for some sweet inspiration, oh well
Just another hard-time band
With Negro affectations
I was a hopeful in rooms like this
When I was working cheap
It's an old romance-the Boho dance
It hasn't gone to sleep
 
But even on the scuffle
The cleaner's press was in my jeans
And any eye for detail
Caught a little lace along the seams
 
And you were in the parking lot
Subterranean by your own design
The virtue of your style inscribed
On your contempt for mine
Jesus was a beggar, he was rich in grace
And Solomon kept his head in all his glory
It's just that some steps outside the Boho dance
Have a fascination for me
 
A camera pans the cocktail hour
Behind a blind of potted palms
And finds a lady in a Paris dress
With runs in her nylons
 
You read those books where luxury
Comes as a guest to take a slave
Books where artists in noble poverty
Go like virgins to the grave
Don't you get sensitive on me
'Cause I know you're just too proud
You couldn't step outside the Boho dance now
Even if good fortune allowed
 
Like a priest with a pornographic watch
Looking and longing on the sly
Sure it's stricken from your uniform
But you can't get it out of your eyes
 
Nothing is capsulized in me
On either side of town
The streets were never really mine
Not mine these glamour gowns
 
[Joni Mitchell - The boho dance]

tonight we drink to youth
and holding fast the truth
don't want to lose what i had as a boy
my heart still has a beat
but love is now a feat
as common as a cold day in L.A.
sometimes when I'm alone I wonder
is there a spell that I am under
keeping me from seeing the real thing
 
love hurts
but sometimes it's a good hurt
and it feels like I'm alive
love sings
when it transcends the bad things
have a heart and try me
cause without love I won't survive
 
tethered and abused
stand naked and accused
should I surface, this one man submarine
I only want the truth
so tonight we drink to youth
I never lose what I had as a boy
sometimes when I'm alone I wonder
is there a spell that I am under
keeping me from seeing the real thing
 
love hurts
but sometimes it's a good hurt
and it feels like I'm alive
love sings
when it transcends the bad things
have a heart and try me
cause without love I wont survive
 
love hurts
but sometimes it's a good hurt
and it feels like I'm alive
love sings
when it transcends the bad things
have a heart and try me
cause without love I wont survive
 
love hurts, oh oh
love hurts
without love I wont survive
love hurts oh la la la la la la oh
love hurts
 
[Incubus - Love hurts]
