Valentine
Suki Waterhouse Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Turn around and leave it all behind
Once again, I've drawn a line
There must be a place where lost love overflows
Tell the truth that in my mind
We were always on borrowed time
Is it just that it always goes
Seems to me it's over
I'll get used to it eventually
Over and over again, brutally
It's just the way it's meant to be
Now your love's no good for me
Beneath my smile my thoughts run wild
Though I try my best, I can't forget my past
So once again I send it on
To the place where love lost overflows
Seems to me it's over
I'll get used to it eventually
Over and over again, brutally
It's just the way it's meant to be
Now your love's no good for me
The lyrics of Suki Waterhouse's Valentine talks about lost love and the hopelessness that comes with it. The song opens up with her wondering where all the love goes when it is lost. She talks about how she has drawn a line and turned around to leave it all behind, indicating that she has moved on from the relationship that caused the pain. However, she still wonders whether there is a place where lost love goes and overflows.
In the chorus, Suki comes to terms with the fact that the relationship is over and that she needs to accept it. She sings about getting used to it eventually, though it will be brutal to do so. She acknowledges that this is the way it is meant to be, and that the love of her ex-partner is no good for her anymore.
The second verse talks about how she tries to go on with her life, but the thoughts of her past keep creeping up on her, and she cannot forget it. Thus, she refers to the place where love lost overflows, indicating that she needs a place to store the memories of the past love. Overall, the song is about coming to terms with the end of a relationship and finding a way to deal with the pain that comes with it.

Lyrics:
My flowers are more predictable than the wish that is mine
just to get a little courage or sip a little wine
all i wanna ask is somewhere down the line
wont you wont you wont you wont you be my valentine
if only you could be here sometimes
then i could control my symptoms
i know im in trouble when i start looking back
over old memories that dont belong to me
all i wanna ask is somewhere down the line
wont you wont wont you wont you be my valentine
if only you could be here sometimes
then i could control my symptoms
you could drive from Malibu out to LAX
take me out for dinner put me straight back on the chair
all i wanna ask is somewhere down the line
wont you wont wont you wont you be my valentine
if only you could see me crying
then youd understand my symptoms
if you wanna see my face if you wanna see my face
if you wanna see my face if you wanna see my face
you take your time im taking mine
you take your time im taking mine
