Like An Old Fashioned Waltz Lyrics - Singles - Denny Sandy

(Sandy Denny) 

Roses are red, and violets are blue 

Primroses pale on a velvet green hue 

Warm summer days by cool waterfalls 

Like the music we hear 

Those things we'll always hold dear 

Like an old fashioned waltz 

When the moonlight shines down 

On the Hollywood world 

And the heroine waits for her beau to return 

And violins play from behind garden walls 

How I'd love to remain with the silver refrain 

Of an old fashioned waltz 

As they dance round the floor 

And there's no-one else there 

And the world is no more and there's never a care 

By the perfect lagoon where the nightingale calls 

With only the moon and the nostalgic tune 

Of an old fashioned waltz 

Roses are red and violets are blue 

Primroses pale on a velvet green hue 

Warm summer days by cool waterfalls 

Like the music we hear 

Those things we'll always hold dear 

Like an old fashioned waltz 

Like an old fashioned waltz 

An old fashioned waltz
