Popular Valentine day lyrics

Speaking of popular Valentine’s day lyrics, there are so many songs that have become popular over the years. Stevie Wonder’s greatest hit, “I just called to say I love you,” has been a hot favorite ever since it was featured in the motion picture, “The Woman in Red,” in the year 1984.

The Lyrics…

  

No new years day to celebrate
No chocolate covered candy hearts to give away
No first of spring, no song to sing
In fact here's just another ordinary day


No April rain, no flowers bloom
No wedding Saturday within the month of June
But what it is, is something true
Made up of these three words that I must say to you


I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart


No summer's high, no warm July
No harvest moon to light one tender August night
No autumn breeze, no falling leaves
Not even time for birds to fly to southern skies


No Libra sun, no Halloween
No giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you bring
But what it is though old so new
To fill your heart like no three words could ever do


I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care, I do
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart


I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart
Of my heart, baby of my heart

Valentine’s Day Cards

Little did Saint Valentine know that his campaign to spread the message of love and happiness would turn into an annual feast celebrated by people across the world.The concept of greeting ones spouse or lover on valentine has been prevalent since the medieval times. In those days it was fashionable to recite or sing verses written specially for a loved one. Paper greeting cards originated in the 1500’s. But even before that the first recorded Valentine verses were written by the Duke of Orleans, when in prison. The Duke has written several versus and poems for his wife and some of these written parchments are still on display at the British Museum in England.

The 1700’s was significant. It was during this time that the tradition of presenting flowers to your beloved originated. Valentine Day cards became popular in America as far back as the 1700’s. At this time it was a common practice to import ‘writers’ or ‘books’ with romantic versus, which were then printed on cards and paper.

In those days most valentine’s day cards were handmade with depictions of the sacred heart, an angel and cupid and lace trimmings. Cards as we know and understand today became popular much later. Commercialization of the festival has changed a lot. Today cards come in every conceivable variety!
