Blue Valentines Lyrics

Cover art for Blue Valentines lyrics by Tom Waits

I've never heard this song. I just came by the lyrics by accident and I love this part:

"She sends me blue valentines Though I try to remain at large"

I'm going to go listen to the song.

Possibly my favourite song EVER :) Tom Waits is genius, he's a poet as far as I'm concerned. This song is beautiful. The way he sings it can't be beaten, his voice is perfect... he sounds just drunk enough to slur his words, but the parts where he suddenly goes higher and louder and his voice breaks a bit... it's like his heart breaking. He's a legend!
