Like an Old Fashioned Waltz

Roses are red

Violets are blue

Primrose is pale

On the velvet green hueWarm summer days

Like cool water falls

Like music we hear

Those things we'll always hold dear

Like an old fashioned waltzWhen the moonlight shines down

On the Hollywood world

And the heroine waits

For her love to returnAnd the violins play

From behind garden walls

Oh, how I love to remain

With the silver refrain

Of an old fashioned waltzAnd they dance 'round the floor

And there's no one else there

In the world is no worry

And is never a careAnd the perfect moon

As the nightingale calls

With only the moon

And the nostalgic tune

Of an old fashioned waltz
