Lyrics

(Roses are red my love...do do do do)

A long, long time ago
On graduation day
You handed me you book
I signed this way:
Roses are red my love, violets are blue
Sugar is sweet my love, but not a sweet as you

We dated through high school
And when the big day came
I wrote in your book
Next to my name:
Roses are red my love, violets are blue
Sugar is sweet my love, but not a 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

(Roses are red.....)
