Lyrics

what i feel when you’re near     i will never reveal     words sometimes misfire even though they’re sincere     instead i shall show it to you     my sweetest valentine     i’ll try and make you proud of being with me     and just as loved as you make me feel. you are like the bright sun     shining warm in the spring     waking me from slumber     to bring joy and relief     how could i not love you then?     come closer i’ll be your man     until my heart beats     i will sing my song to you. for you’re cute and you’re fun     and you’re all that i need     i’ll give you my love     i’ll be true believe me     this romance will last for years     my sweetest valentine     and still it’ll be unique just like you     just like the way i feel when you’re near.

Lyrics

we ran outside stepping into a pool of darkness lit by a million stars a promise from our heart sealed by our whispering kisses burning waves of love time won’t crush these memories of being together that night of the sea under the stars whispering a lullaby for you we ran outside and the sweetness of that moment remains.

Simon, thanks so much for submitting your release Valentine for airplay. […] great musicianship and sound recording. I’ll be sure to get your release in our new releases rack asap this week, Simon […]. Be sure to keep in touch.

Ron Burd, former Music Director at CIUT-FM radio, via email.

Your singing style [on the album] reminds me of old Jobim records when he used to sing his own songs.
