lyrics

Cutting the cloth and pushing in pins
Work never ends it just begins
Smoke rises slow and the soot it falls
Valentina’s high above us all

A shooting star will catch the light
She’s somewhere up there in the night
This world must look so small
Valentina’s high above us all

Wish I wasn’t so easy to leave behind
Out of sight and out of mind
Valentina Valentina

When she comes home she’ll need a parade
She’s seen so much we’ll look homemade
Valentina the belle of the ball
Valentina high above us all

Wish I had what it takes guess I’m scared to go
If you don’t say yes you’ll never know
Valentina Valentina

Cutting the cloth and pushing in pins
Work never ends it just begins
Her picture hangs on the factory wall
Valentina’s high above us all
