You wouldn't dare
Well you've never left home before
Where have you been?
You don't know what you're missing
Haven't you dreamed of being adventurous
Consider this my invitation
She had a joy I'd never seen before
Within a day she's taking my breath away
I'd always dreamed of being adventurous
You taught me, dear, to be courageous
Little did I know her broken heart
Little did I know she'd come so far
And her past remains her scar
And it's time I've changed
I've seen this veneer**
From what you taught me, dear
Oh Valentina
If only they could see ya
Or take back that afternoon
But it happened so soon
Oh Valentina
Wasn't meant to be
But it's often the bitter things that I've seen
That compliment the ending
How beautiful the ending you've had**
How glorious the ending you've learned**
Oh Valentina
