Violet And A Rose Lyrics - Pam Tillis

A violet fell in love with a rose 

And started it blushing from its head to its toes 

Then one day the rose was kissed by the dew 

A new love was born and the violet turned blue 

Roses are red, violets are blue 

I'm sending red, red roses to you 

If you care to send some flowers to me 

Then send me some violets, I'm blue as can be 

I wanted my love to bouquet with you 

Just like the rose you've proven untrue 

A flower that's wild they say has no home 

And just like the violet I'm left all alone 

Roses are red, violets are blue 

I'm sending red, red roses to you 

If you care to send some flowers to me 

Then send me some violets, I'm blue as can be 

Then send me some violets, I'm blue as can be
