[Charli XCX - Valentine lyrics]
I had to sit there and
Listen to poetry all day
And I tried to escape but
They won't let run away so I tried to hide
But they wouldn't let me hide
So I tried to find you
But I couldn't find you anywhere
And I was sitting next to
You in the biology lecture
And I pretended I didn't understand
Just to capture your attention
And then I smiled, and then you smiled
And then I smiled, and it
Was all worth my while, oh
All worth my while
But later on by the sofa
I wanted to kiss you, i wanted to kiss you
But I couldn't get that close, no
I couldn't get that close
And when you opened your eyes
It was like you didn't wanna see
My face in your personal space
And I wanted to run away, yeah
I wanted to run away
Cause I was told that you liked me
I was told that you liked me, yeah
But obviously not, yeah
I was told that you liked me, I
Was told that you liked me, yeah
But obviously not
And I once told someone
They should write some golden poetry
Cause it would get them far
In the music industry it'd do them good
And I guess that's what I'm doing now
I'm doing good, yeah
I knew I'd have to do it sometime
And I hope I get to see
You on February the 14th
Cause then I might be able to try
This whole thing again some other time
Oh, you can be my Valentine
Oh, it's the time
Will you be my Valentine, -tine, Valentine?
But later on by the sofa
I wanted to kiss you, i wanted to kiss you
But I couldn't get that close, no
I couldn't get that close
And when you opened your eyes
It was like you didn't wanna see
My face in your personal space
And I wanted to run away, yeah
I wanted to run away
Cause I was told that you liked me
I was told that you liked me, yeah
But obviously not, yeah
I was told that you liked me, I
Was told that you liked me, yeah
But obviously not
Oh, I'm starting to worry that
I'm sounding like The Fray
Cause I hate the way they talk
About sadness and life decay
But they must talk some sense if the
Knew how to save a life
But I never talk sense, no
I haven't done this right
Oh, I'm starting to worry that
I'm sounding like The Fray
Cause I hate the way they talk
About sadness and life decay
But they must talk some sense if the
Knew how to save a life
But I never talk sense, no
I haven't done this right
Last year on the sofa, I wanted to kiss you
I wanted to kiss you
But I couldn't get that close, no
I couldn't get that close
And when you opened your eyes
It was like you didn't wanna see
My face in your personal space
And I wanted to run away, yeah
I wanted to run away
I was told that you liked me, I
Was told that you liked me, yeah
But obviously not, yeah
I was told that you liked me
I was told that you liked me
But obviously not, no
No, no, no, no obviously not, yeah, yeah, oh
Nah nah, yeah oh oh
Listen to poetry all day
And I tried to escape but
They won't let run away so I tried to hide
But they wouldn't let me hide
So I tried to find you
But I couldn't find you anywhere
And I was sitting next to

And then I smiled, and it
