Name: St. Valentine's Day
Duration: P00H03M13S
Description: Ukelele, falsetto, and music hall ditties are a time-tested combination - hence, this is my tribute to Tiny Tim. Fun fact - when Nicholas Tremulis heard this song, he identified the lead instrument as a banjo.

lyrics

it's valentine's day and i'm afraid i'm feeling blue
i have to spend another holiday where i am not with you

it's valentine's day and it's a shame i feel so down
i have to coop up in my bed when you're not in this town

i'm taking doctor's orders, he says it's for the best
my sickness will be shorter with a few days of bedrest
but i still feel depressed

it's valentine's day and even though i'm all alone
i still can call you on the phone and you'll be in my home

it's valentine's day and i'm afraid i can't see you
the doc says it's contagious and i fear you'd catch it too

it's valentine's day and it's a pity how i feel
i was going to take you out tonight to have a romantic meal

the way i look would appall you, my skin is pale my eyes are glazed
but ever since i thought to call you i feel a lot less dazed
in fact, you'd be amazed

it's valentine's day and it is very plain to see
the wonders of technology if they brought you to me
