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
