It was Valentine’s Day
When we were young
You were shy
And he was fun
How was I to know
The chocolates
Came from you
When all you ever did
Was softly say hello
I knew the mystery sender
Had to have been him
But when I kissed him
On the playground
I saw the tear
Fall down your check
To this day you still
Remind me of my blunder
But it started a lasting love
With me and the boy
Who gave me cordial cherries
