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 that I've 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
That compliment the ending

How beautiful the ending you've had (oh, Valentina)
How glorious the ending you've learned (oh, Valentina)
Oh-oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Oh, Valentina
