Happy Valentine's Day! Is it autobiographical? Who knows? I don't kiss and tell, or not kiss and tell ;)

lyrics

I thought that love at first sight
was just another advertising invention
created with the intention
of selling some flowers

After spending years alone
I finally felt at home with rejection
Became best friends with depression
My outlook was dour

But then I started to believe
That true love might exist
'cause on Valentine's Eve
I really got kissed

Men much smarter than I can not tell me why
some people find love, fame and fortune
in double large portions
while lonely hearts starve

The question of why
doesn't always need a rhyme or a reason
or particular season
Thats just the way that things are

I think I might believe
That true love may exist
'cause on Valentine's Eve
I really got kissed

It was the kind of kiss that curls your toes
shivers down your spine
Where we're heading only heaven knows
but a kiss like that is a really good sign

As I headed back home
I started thinking 'bout writing this song
Yeah Its been so very long
Since I had been struck

It's so funny how fate
waits 'til you're not expecting
when gloom is all you're projecting
and proves that life doesn't suck

I know that I believe
That true love does exist
'cause on Valentine's Eve
I really got kissed

I really got kissed
I really got kissed
I really got kissed
