Valentine

(album: The Valentine LP - 2013)

My city wakes up in the afternoon
Like the rain came down in the month of June
Kings of murmuring atmosphere
Building bombshell towers with glass and fear
Yeah, here

My city wakes up to a poison moon
Like the radio never played a tune
Gathered dust and scattered crazy glue
Will I build a house big enough for two?
Yeah, you

From the outside, looking in
Sometimes I worry I've waited too long

Sunshine
Won't you please be my Valentine?
Come and give me your peace of mind
When will I be love?

We learn to hunt in canyon shade
Underneath skyscrapers and cars they made
And if our plan doesn't go just right
We will hatch another one that night, alright
We'll book vacations and holidays
Then we'll act them out in the woods for days
And if some god ever finds me here
I believe only in you, my dear, yeah you

From the outside, looking in
Sometimes I worry I've waited too long

Sunshine
Won't you please be my Valentine?
Come and give me your peace of mind
When will I be love?

You, in this dark tower
You, up ahead of me
Yeah you, in darkest hour
You, will be the light of me
Yeah you, in passing showers
You, in planting flowers
You, up on the roof again
But they don't know where we've been
Baby, all they need is sunshine

Sunshine
Won't you please
Sunshine
Won't you please
Sunshine
Won't you please
Sunshine
Won't you please

Won't you please, please, please
Won't you please be
