Albert Willemetz and Henri Christiné wrote Valentine for Maurice Chevalier. This is the modified version, performed on the I Love Lucy episode, The French Revue. The original lyrics were somewhat risqué.
I have found the very girl
The one and only
Guaranteed to mend the heart
That felt so lonely.
My mind’s made up today
And I am on my way
Knowing just what I intend to say …
Believe me.
I’ll forget all other little girls
Valentine, Valentine
You have teeth that look like pretty pearls
And your kisses are a dream
But as for loving …
You know how
In fact you set the style
Valentine, Valentine
