Roy Clark - Sweet Violets lyrics

rate me

(Joe Allison - Danny Dill)

All year long I waited for the chance

To ask if she'd go with me to the dance

She said what kind of flowers will I get

And all I could afford to buy were sweet violets.

Sweeter than all the roses

Covered all over with teardrops

She laughed at my sweet violets.

That night another stole my love away

He promised long stemmed roses everyday

She broke my heart and still I can't forget

The time she laughed and left me with my sweet violets.

Her tear stained letter came to me today

Now someone buys her orchids everyday

She has the world at her command and yet

She wants the boy who offered love and sweet violets.

Sweeter than all the roses

Covered all over with teardrops

She cries for my sweet violets...
