Only Some Violets and Roses
Only some violets and roses,
Nature's sweet flowers as they grew;
Only a sweet bunch of flowers, dear,
Love's greatest tribute to you.
I want you to be like the violet—
Modest and winning and true,
So the innocent sweet little flower, dear,
Will always remind me of you.

Modest and winning and true,
So the innocent sweet little flower, dear,
Will always remind me of you.
When I am far from my home, dear,
All I will ask you to send,
Is a sweet little violet or rose, dear,
And I am sure they will strength to me lend.
I will know in their message of love, dear,
To me you will always be true,
If it's only a sweet little violet or rose,
Earth's greatest love gift from you.
