It reportedly began with the death of two men named Valentine executed by the Romans on February 14 in the third century.
Over the years, Geoffrey Chaucer, author of “The Canterbury Tales” linked the February feast of St. Valentinus to the mating of birds. https://books.google.com/books/about/The_Canterbury_Tales.html?id=cQlEA…
Shakespeare referenced the romantic idea in “Hamlet,” https://books.google.com/books/about/Hamlet.html?id=iL45AQAAMAAJ&prints…
Then somewhere in that evolution, February 14 became a day in which we speak more openly about love and recall innocent childhood days when we shared a handmade heart, a flower, or candy.
Now, we are all celebrating the love we get and the love we give. https://youtu.be/oV8PSj-hQvw

For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream, you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful, baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through, through it all
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand, I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love, I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

Por todos esos momentos
En que me respaldaste,
Por toda la verdad
Que me hiciste ver,
Por toda la alegría
Que trajiste a mi vida,
Por todo lo incorrecto
Que convertiste en correcto,
Por todos los sueños
Que tú hiciste que se hicieran realidad,
Por todo el amor
Que encontré en ti,
Estaré por siempre agradecida, cariño.
Tú eres quien me sostuvo,
Nunca me dejaste caer,
Tú eres quien me ha ayudado,
Todo el tiempo.
Fuiste mi fuerza
Cuando estaba débil.
Fuiste mi voz
Cuando no podía hablar.
Fuiste mis ojos
Cuando no podía ver.
Viste lo mejor
Que había en mí.
Me alzaste
Cuando no podía alcanzar.
Me diste fe
Porque creiste que
Soy todo lo que soy,
Porque me amabas.
Me diste alas
Y me hiciste volar.
Tocaste mi mano,
Pude tocar el cielo.
Perdí mi fe,
Me la diste de nuevo.
Dijiste que ninguna estrella
Estaba fuera de alcance.
Me apoyaste
Y me sentí segura de mí misma.
Tuve tu amor,
Lo tuve todo.
Estoy agradecida
Por cada día que me diste.
Quizás no sé tanto
Pero sé que esto es cierto.
Fui bendecida
Porque fui amada por ti.
Fuiste mi fuerza
Cuando estaba débil.
Fuiste mi voz
Cuando no podía hablar.
Fuiste mis ojos
Cuando no podía ver.
Viste lo mejor
Que había en mí.
Me alzaste
Cuando no podía alcanzar.
Me diste fe
Porque creiste que
Soy todo lo que soy,
Porque me amabas.
Estuviste siempre allí para mí,
El viento tierno que me llevaba,
Una luz en la oscuridad
Irradiando tu amor en mi vida.
Tú has sido mi inspiración.
A través de las mentiras
Tú eras la verdad.
Mi mundo es un mejor lugar
Debido a ti.
Fuiste mi fuerza
Cuando estaba débil.
Fuiste mi voz
Cuando no podía hablar.
Fuiste mis ojos
Cuando no podía ver.
Viste lo mejor
Que había en mí.
Me alzaste
Cuando no podía alcanzar.
Me diste fe
Porque creiste que
Soy todo lo que soy,
Porque me amabas.
