Lyrics[]
- I've got a paper heart
- That's got your name up on it
- I've written a sonnet
- And set it to music
- My heart's a-thumping
- Come and listen to it playing
- It seems to be saying, "Be mine today"
- Be mine today (Not another day)
- Be mine today (But just today)
- For just a 24-hour day, be mine
- Oh, let me hear you say
- That you'll be mine (Can't wait another day)
- My valentine (Valentine)
- Be mine today
- Today's the day for
- Good old-fashioned turtle-doving
- For songs about loving
- For hearing the music
- So I'll be yours for just today
- And not tomorrow
- My heart you can borrow for just today
- I'm yours today (Not another day)
- I'm yours today (But just today)
- For just a 24-hour day, be mine
- Oh, let me hear you say
- That you'll be mine (Can't wait another day)
- My valentine (Valentine)
- Be mine today
