Roses Are Red Lyrics - 1962

[ Buy Roses Are Red ]

(Paul Evans/Al Byron)

(Roses are red, my love
Doo doo doo doo)

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
(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
But luck may God bless you
(May God bless you)

Is that your little girl?
She looks a lot like you
Someday, some boy 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
(Roses are red)
