Lyrics:
Valentine Love
I’ll let the music play
while love lies softly bleeding.
In heavy hands on shadowlands.
As thunder clouds roll in
sunset is receding.
No summer wine – no Valentine.
Chorus:
A tiger trapped inside a cage.
An actor on an empty stage.
Come see the show!
Rock ‘n’ roll can heal your soul
when broken hearts lose all control.
Some rivers still run dry
and jungles burn to embers.
Gold autumn days, must fade to grey.
There is a reason why
a haunted man remembers
one frozen night – his darkest day (oh…)
Chorus
Passion killed by acid rain.
A rollercoaster in my brain.
But, how would you know!
In your satin, silk and lace…
Another time another place.
Chorus
A love let loose and painted black.
A train stuck on a broken track.
I’ll let it go!
Rock ‘n’ roll has healed my soul.
The stage is set – on with the show!
