My daddy is a hero,

He can't be home with me.

Because he's needed in the war,

Across the deep blue sea.

He said, just blow me kisses,

Don't worry, they'll be fine,

They'll travel fast, head straight for me

Sweet baby, Valentine.

My daddy blew me kisses, too,

They landed on my cheek,

Mommy says he'll send some more,

To look for them next week.

I cry because I miss him;

Mommy whispers, "We'll be fine."

Come home, I want to hold you,

Sweet daddy, Valentine.
