Valentine
Dafna Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It isn't in my bones
It isn't something I'm searching for
I know it isn't easy but you need me like I need you
And when I fall asleep
I've got your name playing on repeat
I know I'm one step closer but you're two steps out of reach
So when I'm in heaven will you be my valentine
I don't have the guts to face you while I'm still alive
When we're in heaven maybe then it'll be our time
But 'til I'm in heaven you can't be my valentine
I hope I'm not too late
But my feelings were in the way
I know I'll still be thinking about what I didn't say
So when I'm in heaven will you be my valentine
I don't have the guts to face you while I'm still alive
When we're in heaven maybe then it'll be our time
But 'til I'm in heaven you can't be my valentine

Overall Meaning

In Dafna's song Valentine, the singer expresses her internal conflict and struggles with unrequited love. The first few lines suggest that the idea of love does not come naturally to her and she is not actively searching for it. However, she acknowledges that the person she loves needs her just as much as she needs them. The repetition of the line "I know" emphasizes her awareness of the situation's complexities.


The chorus reveals the true yearning she has for her desired love. She wishes for them to be together in heaven as she's resigned to the fact that it may never happen in this life. The lines "I don't have the guts to face you while I'm still alive" suggests a fear of rejection that holds her back from expressing her feelings to the person she loves. She hopes that when they are reunited in the afterlife, they can finally be together. The use of the word "Valentine" in repetition throughout the song adds to the melancholic tone and romantic intensity.


Overall, the song explores themes of unrequited love, internal conflict, and longing for a deeper connection. The melodies and lyrics blend seamlessly together to create an emotional and moving song that will resonate with anyone who has experienced unrequited love.
