Lyrics
(French folk tune, Lyrics by Richard Compton)
1. Among the winter’s happy days
Comes one in February,
When old and young send valentines
To make each other merry.
Refrain
Tra la la la, Tra la la la,
Tra la la la la la la la la,
Tra la la la, Tra la la la,
Tra la la la la la la la la la.
2. Shop windows full of valentines
Look just like gardens growing,
With white and red and pink and blue
And gold and silver glowing. Refrain
