MP3 of Valentine Song

Valentine Song

Dearest, let these roses 
In their purity,
Be a present symbol
Of my love for thee.

Underneath the blossom 
Thorns are sure to grow;
Take heed lest you touch them,
They would pain you so!

Ah! my faults like thorns are,
But cannot they be
Hidden ‘neath the flower
Of my love for thee?
