Valentine
Sung at the Royal Albert Hall 5th May 1999

And I can see you
And I can hear you
Private converstions rattle round in my head
Like marbles in a can you're the only one I hear

And I can touch you
And I can feel you
Picture perfect postcards of your face are in my brain
& they slowly fade like a movie or a passing train

Do you do you baby
Will you will you always be
Unfettered & free
Come towards me baby
Say you'll always be
My valentine

The clouds are soft as cotton balls
As we slowly descend from this multitude above
And I wish I could dive up
And flutter into your arms

And I'm impressed by the way that you digress
Pretending that your styrofoam was just a chromosome
Well X meets the Y
And we make love & I could die

Do you do you baby
Will you will you always be
Unfettered & free
Come towards me baby
Say you'll always be
My valentine

The winds are soft & you
Your blowing slowly & I know
you'll never be alone, forever in the day

Do you do you baby
Will you will you always be
Unfettered & free
Come towards me baby
Say you'll always be
My valentine

And I can see you
And I can hear you
Private conversations rattle round in my head
Like marbles in a can
You're the only one I hear
