Valentine
Boy/Girl Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where the old canals they separate us too
We were only twenty-two
I'll cross the water for you
I hope you'll keep a photograph in your heart
Deep where no one can tear it apart
It's wedding night
Put on your suit and tie
Don't hurt me valentine
My only valentine
I know this is nothing new
That you enjoy wearing oversized shoes
All the clowns envy you
Until you fit into
I hope you keep a photograph in your heart
Deep where no one can tear it apart
It's wedding night
We're dressed in black and white
And for the first time in your life
You call me valentine
My only valentine
But not tonight
My valentine
The lyrics to Boy/Girl's song "Valentine" paint a picture of a nostalgic and bittersweet love story. The singer longs to return to Venice, symbolizing a place of romance and passion. The old canals represent the distance that separates the two lovers, as if they are on opposite sides of the water. Despite this separation, they were both young and full of hope at the time, only being twenty-two.
The singer expresses a desire for their partner to keep a photograph in their heart, a memory that is cherished and protected from any harm or outside influence. It signifies the depth of their connection and the importance of preserving their love from any external forces. The mention of a "wedding night" suggests the intensity and commitment of their relationship. It is a sacred moment, symbolizing a union that is meant to last.
However, there is a note of apprehension and vulnerability in the lyrics. The singer pleads with their valentine not to hurt them, as if there is a fear of betrayal or heartbreak. This vulnerability is emphasized by the repeated phrase "my only valentine," indicating that this relationship holds great significance and represents the singer's sole source of love and affection.

Take me back to Venice
Return me to a place of romantic nostalgia
Where the old canals they separate us too
Even physical barriers couldn't keep us apart
We were only twenty-two
We were young and naive
I'll cross the water for you
I am willing to go to great lengths for you
I hope you'll keep a photograph in your heart
I hope you'll always hold our memories close
Deep where no one can tear it apart
Where no one can destroy the love we shared
It's wedding night
A celebration of our love and commitment
Put on your suit and tie
Dress up, be formal for this special occasion
And since you kept it to yourself
Because you didn't reveal your true feelings earlier
Don't hurt me valentine
Please don't break my heart on this day of love
My only valentine
You are the only one I want as my Valentine
I know this is nothing new
I understand that this is a familiar situation
That you enjoy wearing oversized shoes
You like to stand out, be unique
All the clowns envy you
You are admired and envied by others who try to be funny
Until you fit into
Until you find your place or purpose
I hope you keep a photograph in your heart
I hope you hold onto the memories we created
Deep where no one can tear it apart
Safely hidden where no one can destroy our love
We're dressed in black and white
We are formal and serious in our commitment
And for the first time in your life
You finally recognize the true meaning of love
You call me valentine
You acknowledge my significance as your Valentine
My only valentine
I am the one and only person you choose as your Valentine
But not tonight
However, not on this particular night
My valentine
Still, I am your Valentine
