Lyrics
February - Fourteenth Day
February
Fourteenth Day
Glad I'm with you
Just wanted to say
The same old three words
I use every time
But in a new way
So you'll know they're mine
Here's"Te amo"
Spanish for
What I'm feeling
But I feel much more
Seems like the best words
Have been used before
I need new language
For one I adore
We could cruise the South Pacific
Through a thousand little isles
Where ever Tagalog is spoken,.
" Mahal Kita" brings smiles
I'll say, "Salamat po" for "Thank you"
And we'll be off on our way
To celebrate this date:
February
Fourteenth Day
Kinda scary
In a way
To be carried
Away in this way
Not afraid to
Take any chance
So I'll tell you
"J'taime" That's from France.
"S'agapo"
That's the Greek
With a hand
No need to speak
"Ti-Amo 's" Italian
"Ik hou van jou" - Dutch
"Ich liebe dich" in German
I won't use as much
Long ago cave people painted
Their feelings on the walls
And in some primitive places
They copied animal calls
"Mel in le" is the Elvish
From the Lord of the Rings
"Wo-eye nee" is how the Chinese
Wooed romantic things
Around the world expressions
A zillion different ways
On every February
Fourteenth Day
--Instrumental Bridge-
This could be the best solution
Simply put in foreign tongues
But before I settle on one
There's a couple more to run
Like a nudge under the table
Like s wink I toss your way
Little things that say "I love you,"
There, I said it anyway.
Different words that share one meaning
I'm trying to convey
For this very February
February--Fourteenth Day

February
Fourteenth Day
Glad I'm with you
Just wanted to say
The same old three words
I use every time
But in a new way
So you'll know they're mine
Tequiero
Is Spanish for
What I'm feeling
But I feel much more
Seems the best words
Have been used before
I need new language
For one I adore
We could cruise the South Pacific
Through a thousand little isles
Where ever Tagalog is spoken,.
" Mahal Kita" will bring on smiles
I'll say, "Salamat po" for "Thank you"
And we'll be off on our way
Until I do renew
Three words I want to say
Kinda scary
In a way
To be carried
Away in this way
Not afraid to
Take any chance
So I'll tell you
"J'taime" That's from France.
"S'agapo"
That's the Greek
With a hand sign
No need to speak
"Ti-Amo 's" Italian
"Ik hou van jou" - Dutch
"Ich liebe dich" in German
I won't use as much
This could be the best solution
Simply put in foreign tongues
But before I settle on one
There's a few more trials to run
Like a nudge under the table
Like s wink I toss your way
Little things that say "I love you,"
There, I said it anyway.
How should I know
Which is best
Who to follow
Where can I test
Not enough that
I want to confess
While I wander in wonder
In this wonderful mess
