Bobby Vinton – Roses Are Red (My Love) – 1962

Lyrics

 

Roses are red, my love, doo-roo-roo-roo

A long-long time ago, on graduation day
You handed me your book, I signed this way

Roses are red, my love, violets are blue
Sugar is sweet, my love, but not as sweet as you

We dated through high school, and when the big day came
I wrote into your book, next to my name

Roses are red, my love, violets are blue
Sugar is sweet, my love, but not as sweet as you
(As sweet as you)

Then I went far away and you found someone new
I read your letter, dear, and I wrote back to you

Roses are red, my love, violets are blue
Sugar is sweet, my love, good luck, may God bless you
(May God bless you)

Is that your little girl? She looks a lot like you
Someday, some boy will write in her book too

Roses are red, my love, violets are blue
Sugar is sweet, my love, but not as sweet as you

Roses are red
