well i don't know but i've been told and

seen what you've left behind

and i don't know if i like what i see

when it's knocking at my door



and you don't know if you're laughing or crying

and i don't know if i care

'cause i know right here

i've got me something that you never had

you might laugh but what are you looking at?

sending your own valentines to the one you never had



well i don't know but i've been told and

seen what you've left behind

and all those ladies you left standing on the corner

they're laughing at you now



(you never had, you never had)

so you drink all night and you sleep all day

'cause you see what you've left behind

and standing on the corner, hey lady got a quarter

she's passing you by



and you don't know if you're laughing or crying

and i don't know if i care

'cause i know right here

i've got me something that you never had

you might laugh but what are you looking at?

sending your own valentines to the one you never had
