LYRICS:

for you my valentine do you understand now why i walked away
and in the wintertime do you feel any better today
i’m not taking your word for it
there’s got to be a little more to it
they told me you planned it
they told me that you had to take it all for granted

it’s not that i hate you
you may find if you look
that i loved you enough to walk away
now you see it now you don’t
should believe it but you won’t
this too will end

i’ll take this as the first day of my life
i’ll make this right where i belong

there’s a place where the rooftops meet the sky
where the forest meets the city
and in my mind i often take you there with me
this is the first day of our lives
this is right where we belong

i’ll take this as the first day of my life
i’ll make this right where i belong
