The Maple Street Project: Music & Lyrics
Valentine
(The Maple Street Project)
2003
E. Luskin & J. Coward
Stairway in the mountains
Meeting cloudy seas
Heaven's snow and sunshine
Spread in pouring streams
This is a song and its kind of a fantasy dream
Two wayfaring friends of ours
And hours on the road
In a baby blue Bedford Van
Hauling a laid back load
This is a dream
And its playing out soft and slow
Its a rusty green vacation
In a whitened wintertime
Snap the picture baby
And be my Valentine
We'll circle round the shoreline
By a castle we will dine
On breads and fruits and cheeses
And bottles full of wine
We'll call on the monster
Read her a valentine
Spread your picnic table
Spread your vision's sweep
Fill the loch with laughter
And dream of locked up deep
As the sun fades away
Its something for us to keep
Remember me a friend
Cause I'd do it all again
If I just had the time
Hold on to this day
When we're so far away
Its yours and its mine
Its a rusty green vacation
In a whitened wintertime
Snuggle closer baby
And be my Valentine ( x 3)
