marnie blake - valentine's day lyrics

[verse 1]
every february, i buy my own candy
post “love is cringe” like i’m so anti+romantic
scroll past couples in their matching fits
mute three emmas, call it “boundaries,” i’m so adapted
used to group+text, “shots for the single girls, who’s in?”
watch ‘em pair off one by one and leave me with the bill again
say, “i’m fine, i like being bitter anyway”
(that’s a lie, but okay)

[pre+chorus]
cut to me in cvs with a basket and eye strain
every card’s like “soulmate” in glitter and high+gloss pain
grab the dumbest one that says “be mine” in gold
roll my eyes, feel my stupid little hеart unfold

[chorus]
it’s valentine’s day, and for once i don’t hatе it
i’m in your loud+ass car, and i don’t wanna escape it
you’re not a prince, you’re not a cure
you’re late, you’re broke, but i feel weirdly sure

[post+chorus]
‘cause you showed up in my life, and somehow i’m okay
for the first time in forever, i don’t feel afraid
of wanting you to stay
[verse 2]
at the restaurant, waiter calls us “you two”
i almost say, “it’s casual,” then choke, like… is that true?
you knock over the water, talk with your whole body
hand me one half+dead flower you stole from the lobby
if anyone else did that, i’d block them on sight
but you look so proud, i just laugh all night
you say, “i didn’t plan a speech, i just like you, okay?”
who gave you the right to say it that way?

[chorus]
it’s valentine’s day, and for once i don’t hate it
i’m in your thrift+store coat, and i don’t wanna escape it
you’re not a sign, you’re not a fix
you leave hair in the sink, but you’re still who i pick

[post+chorus]
’cause you stay through the pain till the end of the song
for the first time in forever, i don’t feel wrong
for wanting you to stay

[bridge]
maybe you’ll break my heart by fall
or i’ll panic and stop replying to your calls
maybe we’ll end on “no worries” and a sad blue heart
like every almost+love i’ve ripped apart
but i used to toast, “here’s to being alone forever”
like that made me wise and not just scared, whatever
now i’m on your couch in your clothes, and we’re cuddled up close
you’re playing with my hair, and i think:
“never let go”
[final chorus]
it’s valentine’s day, and for once i don’t hate it
there’s takeout on the floor and i don’t wanna escape it
you’re kind of a mess, you’re kind of the best
you fell asleep halfway through the car chase, i’ll confess

[post+chorus]
i’m not saying we’ll get married, like, next year
but for the first time in forever, i like the idea
that if love is a wreck and a cliché
you’re my wreck today

[outro]
heart+shaped candy on your coffee table
cvs card lost in your xbox cables
if someone asks what changed, i’ll roll my eyes, say, “nothing, really”
but secretly i’m writing your name in pen
on the back of the receipt like a thirteen+year+old freak
who’s dumb enough to believe
