Roses are red, my love ... doo doo da doooo ...
|
|
A long, long time ago
|
On graduation day
|
You handed me your book
|
I signed this way:
|
|
Roses are red, my love.
|
Violets are blue.
|
Sugar is sweet, my love.
|
But not as sweet as you.
|
|
We dated through high school.
|
And when the big day came,
|
I wrote into your book,
|
next to my name:
|
|
Roses are red, my love.
|
Violets are blue.
|
Sugar is sweet, my love.
|
But not as sweet as you.
|
|
Then I went far away
|
And you found someone new
|
I read your letter dear
|
And I wrote back to you:
|
|
Roses are red, my love.
|
Violets are blue.
|
Sugar is sweet, my love.
|
But luck may god bless you.
|
|
Is that your little girl?
|
She looks a lot like you.
|
Someday some boy will write
|
in her book, too.
|
|
Roses are red, my love.
|
Violets are blue.
|
Sugar is sweet, my love.
|
But not as sweet as you.
