A New Wave Valentine's Day

[MARV]

Let's list our ONE favorite song for Valentine's Day. Me, I'm a Pet Head so I'll go with the PSB's Heart:

Every time I see you something happens to me
Like a chain reaction between you and me
My heart starts missing a beat
My heart starts missing a beat
Every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Oh oh oh, every time

If I didn't love you, I would look around for someone else
But every time I see you, you have the same effect
My heart starts missing a beat
My heart starts missing a beat
Every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Every time

I hear your heart beat next to me
I'm in love with you; I mean what I say
I'm in love with you, and you don't know
What it means to be with you

(Beat)
(Beat)
(Beat)
(H-H-Heartbeat)

(Beat)
(Beat)
(Beat)
(H-H-Heartbeat)

Every time I see you, no matter what we do
There's a strange reaction, can you feel it too?
My heart starts missing a beat
My heart starts missing a beat
Every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Oh oh oh, every time

I hear your heart beat next to me
I'm in love with you; I mean what I say
I'm in love with you, and you don't know
What it means to be with you

Oh oh oh, every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Oh oh oh, every time
(Beat)
(Beat) Every time
(Beat)
(Beat) Every time
(Beat)
(H-H-Heartbeat)

(Beat)
(H-H-Heartbeat)
(Beat)
(H-H-Heartbeat)
(Beat)
(H-H-Heartbeat)
(H-H-Heartbeat)

Bryan Ferry - Valentine, from "Boys and Girls"

Tell me something I must know
The burning question why
Half a man is twice as much
When he's on the line
Happiness - hard to get
Valentine in hand
None of them will ever guess
But you understand
How many men in a world of their own
There is no end to great unknown
Tell me something I must know
I'm outside looking in
Train of mirrors none so fair
Let the show begin
How many men in a world of their own
There is no end to great unknown

Of course it's the mood, not the lyrics that matters here. Back in my single days I had a makeout tape with "Avalon" on one side and "Boys and Girls" on the other. Ahhh, memories...

The absolute best: Valentine's Day by ABC from Lexicon of Love. Perfect lyrics and a great song!

As I mentioned in NNNW, I don't ever celebrate Valentine's Day. However, I once used this song's lyrics to make some sappy artwork once for the Mr., and the lyrics are appropriate for V-Day.


The Cure-This Twilight Garden

i lift my lips from kissing you
to kiss the sky
cloud soft and blue
and slow the sun melts down
into your golden words for me

i lift my hands from touching you
to touch the wind that whispers through
this twilight garden
turns into a world
where dreams are real

no-one will ever take your place
i am lost in you
no-one will ever take your place
so in love with you

i lift my eyes from watching you
to watch the star rise shine onto
your dreaming face and dreaming smile
you're dreaming worlds for me

i lift my lips from kissing you
and kiss the sky wide deepest blue
and slow the moon swims up
into your golden words for me

no-one will ever take your place
i am lost in you
no-one will ever take your place
so in love with you

<p align="justify">I had a totally different song in my head. Even though I list Roxy Music's song in New Wave lists, they're not really New Wave[}:)] My second choice isn't that much more New Wave either, but closer to Italo Disco. Cheezy as hell, too, but I love that song.
