Caro Emerald � Black Valentine Lyrics
(Verse)
Who needs a captain on a love ship?
Someone with no clue of the destination due bow
Ain�t that a trip?
(Verse)
Who needs a diamond on a hand of stone?
Someone with the hurt who couldn�t make it work,
A trophy because you slipped
(Pre-Chorus)
Love can�t conquer anything
If it�s lost without a trace
You might be tough, you might even be strong
But not when you�re in this place
(Chorus)
Secret lovers � get lost in the secrets they tell
They make lovers blind when they cover every inch of their lies
Secret lovers � it�s just your place of mind
A smoke and some wine is the life of the Black Valentine
(Verse)
Who needs a journey on a runaway train?
Your ticket isn�t worth half of what it hurts
When heart beats overwork
(Verse)
Who needs redemption from a guiltless crime?
Someone caries dreams from scene to scene
Til they tear apart your mind
(Pre-Chorus 2)
Love can�t conquer anything
If it�s hurting in the deep
You�ll be awake, you�ll twist your fate
That�s not someone you should keep
(Chorus)
Secret lovers � get lost in the secrets they tell
They make lovers blind when they cover every inch of their lies
Secret lovers � it�s just your place of mind
A smoke and some wine is the life of the Black Valentine
(Bridge)
This is their demand for another night they spend in self-conversation
It�s a will they came to pose in a letter left they�ve composed
To repeat the situation
They lie in a loop
(Chorus)
Secret lovers � get lost in the secrets they tell
They make lovers blind when they cover every inch of their lies
Secret lovers � it�s just your place of mind
A smoke and some wine is the life of the Black Valentine
(Verse)
Who needs a captain on a love ship?
Someone with no clue of the destination due bow
Ain�t that a trip?
(Verse)
Who needs a diamond on a hand of stone?
Someone with the hurt who couldn�t make it work,
A trophy because you slipped
(Pre-Chorus)
Love can�t conquer anything
If it�s lost without a trace
You might be tough, you might even be strong
But not when you�re in this place
(Chorus)
Secret lovers � get lost in the secrets they tell
They make lovers blind when they cover every inch of their lies
Secret lovers � it�s just your place of mind
A smoke and some wine is the life of the Black Valentine
(Verse)
Who needs a journey on a runaway train?
Your ticket isn�t worth half of what it hurts
When heart beats overwork
(Verse)
Who needs redemption from a guiltless crime?
Someone caries dreams from scene to scene
Til they tear apart your mind
(Pre-Chorus 2)
Love can�t conquer anything
If it�s hurting in the deep
You�ll be awake, you�ll twist your fate
That�s not someone you should keep
(Chorus)
Secret lovers � get lost in the secrets they tell
They make lovers blind when they cover every inch of their lies
Secret lovers � it�s just your place of mind
A smoke and some wine is the life of the Black Valentine
(Bridge)
This is their demand for another night they spend in self-conversation

They make lovers blind when they cover every inch of their lies
Secret lovers � it�s just your place of mind
A smoke and some wine is the life of the Black Valentine
