Roses are red my love

Roses are red my love violets are blue 
Sugar is sweet my love but not as sweet as you 

A long long time ago on graduation day 
You handed me your book I signed this way 

Roses are red my love... 

We dated through school and when the big day came 
I wrote into your book next to my name 

Roses are red my love... 

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 good luck may God bless you 

Is that your little girl she looks a lot like you 
Some day some boy will write in her book too 

Roses are red my love...
