STILL RACIN’

Please tell me, oh heart of mine
Where did you hide my Valentine
Where did the loving feelings go
That used to make, your beat race so.

Where do I go to find that touch
Of a warm hand, that meant so much
A look in eyes, without a word
That said those three, I once heard.

‘Guess, I should be, heart of mine
Glad, we once had a Valentine
And have those memories we know
That still make, your beat race so.

SOME DO AND SOME DON’T

If you have a Valentine
If somebody holds your heart
Or if there’s one you want to be
You need to tell them, that’s the start.

If you can reach and touch them
You’re as lucky as can be
‘Cause there’s so many all alone
Like those, we’ve sent, across the Sea.

So, let’s say a prayer for them
For, their quick and safe return
Support the loved ones left behind
And learn, their lessons, learned.

"Absence makes the heart grow fonder"
Just ask all those who spend that Day
Without a loved one, all alone
And I’m sure that they'd all say,

If you have one treat them well
And hold them, good and tight
Tell them of the love you feel
Each and every, morn and night.

For, there’s some people, go through life
And never have someone to share
A special day, like Valentine’s
And to tell, how much, they care.

Abe -- sorry I missed this on V-Day.  But, I did enjoy it and appreciate all the sentiment -- especially for "our boys."  Thanks.
