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
