Valentine's Day by Shawn Browning

Shawn Browning's second single, Valentine's Day, is a nod back to 90's noisy guitar alternative pop. The song is akin to Bob Mould/Sugar/Husker Du, The Posies, Dinosaur Jr., The Replacements, early Soul Asylum, Superchunk, and Matthew Sweet. Of course with a heavy dose of Cheap Trick, Ramones, Sex Pistols naturally creeping in.

VALENTINE'S DAY

They told me, “give it up, you’re never gonna make it, boy”
“All this town has for you is pain”
“No one’s ever gonna hear a single song you sing
If you stay here in Fort Wayne”

But, as long as you’re here that’s where I’ll be
And if you wander; with you I’ll leave
I can’t begin to pretend your heart is not my home
I guess I made it afterall; with you. . . and not alone

With you every day is Valentines Day

I can’t lie, my heart desired to grab a brass ring
So unattainable I’m told
The only ring that mattered I put around your finger
One with a diamond and a band of gold

But, as long as you’re here that’s where I’ll be
And if you wander; with you I’ll leave
I can’t begin to pretend your heart is not my home
I guess I made it afterall; with you. . . and not alone

With you every day is Valentines Day
With you every day is Valentines Day
With you every day is Valentines Day
With you every day is Valentines Day

I guess I made it afterall; with you. . . and not alone

With you every day is Valentines Day
With you every day is Valentines Day
With you every day is Valentines Day
With you every day is Valentines Day
With you every day is Valentines Day
With you every day is Valentines Day
With you every day is Valentines Day
With you every day is Valentines Day
