Lyrics and their meaning:

I love the light in your eyes and the dark in your heart
You love our permanent chase and the bite of our bark
We know we're classic together like Egyptian gold
We love us

In this verse, the protagonist is sharing their favourite things about their lover and vise versa. Or, in the 5sos matter, it could be the things they love about their fans. It is possible. They know that they're classic together and they love it!.

It don't matter, be combative or be sweet cherry pie
It don't matter just as long as I get all you tonight

It doesn't matter if you're fiery or as sweet as cake, I just need you.

I can take you out, oh-oh
We can kill some time, stay home
Throw balloons, teddy bears and the chocolate eclairs await
Got nothing but love for you, fall more in love every day
Valentine, valentine

This is where the basis of the song comes in. Valentine is supposed to rewrite Valentine's Day. The chorus is saying, we can do whatever we want and we don't need any of those cliche gifts because we love each other. 

So deep, your DNA's being messed with my touch
Can't beat us
So real, fueling the fire until we combust
Can't touch us

I never realised how sensual this verse is. Have you ever heard of an intimate scene where someone says that they feel fire when they're touched by their lover?

That is what this verse means.

Full plate, don't wait, have your cake and eat it, too
Full plate, don't wait, have your cake and eat it
Again, very sexual. Basically, you can have me as a partner and do it with me...


Yay or nay: Absolute YAY! 

What it Reminds me of: Like I said before, this song is meant to rewrite Valentine's Day. Although I do not have a lover (yet), this song reminds me of the cliche things that you'd do on Valentine's Day. I think it's pretty cool how they wanted to reimagine this day, and don't do the norm!

Fun fact: Valentine's Day is Aphrodite's (the Ancient Greek goddess of love) birthday!
