Roses Are Red

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 Goog luck may GOD bless you Is that your little girl? She looks a lot like you Someday someone 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
