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-ue-ue
Sugar is sweet my love, but not as sweet as you (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-ue-ue
Sugar is sweet my love, but not as sweet as you (as sweet as you)
Is that your little girl? She looks so much like you
Someday some boy will write, in her book too:
Roses are red my love, violets are blue-ue-ue
Sugar is sweet my love, but not as sweet as you (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-ue-ue
Sugar is sweet my love, good luck may God bless you (may God bless you)
