Violets for Your Furs

I bought you violets for your furs

And it was Spring for a while, remember

I bought you violets for your furs

And there was April in that December

The snow drifted down on the flowers

And it melted where it lay

The snow looked like dew on the blossoms

As on a summer day

Yes, I bought you violets for your furs

And there was blue in the wintry sky

You pinned the violets to your furs

And gave a lift to the crowds passing by

You smiled at me so sweetly

Since then one thought occurs

That we fell in love completely

The day that I bought you violets for your furs

The snow drifted down on the flowers

And melted where it lay

The snow looked like dew on the blossoms

As on a summer day

I bought you violets for your furs

And there was blue in the wintry sky

Darling you pinned the violets to your furs

And gave a lift to the crowds passing by

You smiled at me so sweetly

Since then one thought occured

We fell in love completely

The day that I bought you violets for your furs
