Valentine Heart

If I was a Londoner, rich with complaint
Would you take me back to your house which is sainted
With lust and the listless shade?

If I could have held you once more in that light
It's nothing to you, but it keeps me alive like
A Valentine's Day, it's a Valentine's heart, anyway

The king and the ages, they fall by the plan
It's always the tired and the ordinary man
It's the challenge, it's funny and such

I want to see you again
I want to see you again
It's so simple and plain
But I'll come back and see you again

The lie is the angel, it doesn't exist
I tell you it's funny, but you like just to twist
All my words, it's a shame you're so young
My words, it's a shame I'm so dumb

I figure a house with the smoke and the fence
The people 'round here would be pleased, take my word on this
I would believe just in you, just believe in you
I would believe just in you, just believe in you

And five days to catch me around with my ring
As I visit the friendships that meant everything
To the girl with the clowns face
To the girl with the clowns face, 'round here
