As we head into the most romantic weekend of the year, let's enjoy the powerful vocals of Martina McBride as she performs the 1997 hit, "Valentine." Co-written by Jim Brickman and Jack Kugell, "Valentine" first appeared on Brickman's album Picture This and later on McBride's album Evolution.

The song reached #3 on the Adult Contemporary charts and #50 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1997. The song was also a cross-over hit, as it climbed to #9 on the Hot Country Songs chart in 1998.

Both McBride and Brickman have gone on to enjoy stellar careers. McBride has been called the "Celine Dion of Country Music" and has sold 14 million albums. She was also named "Female Vocalist of the Year" four times by the Country Music Association (tied for the most ever with Reba McIntire).

Jim Brickman, a songwriter and pianist, is credited with being the "most charted male Adult Contemporary artist." His signature style has brought him six Gold and Platinum albums, 30 charted adult radio hits, and two Grammy nominations.

If there were no words
No way to speak
I would still hear you

If there were no tears
No way to feel inside
I'd still feel for you

And even if the sun refuse to shine
Even if romance ran out of rhyme
You would still have my heart
Until the end of time
You're all I need
My love, my Valentine

All of my life
I have been waiting for
All you give to me
You've opened my eyes
And showed me how to love unselfishly

I've dreamed of this a thousand times before
In my dreams I couldn't love you more
I will give you my heart
Until the end of time
You're all I need
My love, my Valentine

La da da
Da da da da

And even if the sun refuse to shine
Even if romance ran out of rhyme
You would still have my heart
Until the end of time
Cuz all I need
Is you, my Valentine

You're all I need
My love, my Valentine
