Lyrics for Song: Saint Valentine
Lyrics for Album: Letter To Laredo [2007]



Saint Valentine drove a red Continental

With a headlight out and a dent in the side

He swore it wasn't his, it was only a rental

But he drove it every single night



Saint Valentine wore shades and a cowboy hat

He looked straight outta Lonesome Dove

You never saw his eyes but you knew down deep inside

He was longin' for a long lost love



The original lover had a broken heart

To the ground his blood did flow

And for every drop that touch the earth

A red, red rose did grow



Saint Valentine ate pizza every Monday night

And chased it with Johnny Walker Black

The waitresses would stare but he just didn't care

He just wanted his lover back



Saint Valentine wore a T-shirt of the Virgin Madonna

With the sleeves cut out and a tear through the heart

He wore it like a shield to protect his pride and honor

He was tired of livin' so far apart



The original lover had a broken heart

To the ground his blood did flow

And for every drop that touch the earth

A red, red rose did grow



Saint Valentine would circle the shoppin' center mall

With his radio wailin' the blues

He'd park outside the door of the video store

Like he was one of the chosen few



Saint Valentine drove a red Continental

With a headlight out and a dent in the side

He swore it wasn't real, it was only mental

But he drove it every single night



The original lover had a broken heart

To the ground his blood did flow

And for every drop that touch the earth

A red, red rose did grow
