[Chorus]
You brought me violets for my furs
And it was spring for a while, remember?
You brought me violets for my furs
And there was April in that December

[Verse 1]
The snow drifted on the flowers
And melted where it lay
The snow looked like dew on the blossoms
As on a summer's day

[Chorus]
You brought me violets for my furs
And there was blue in the wintry sky
You pinned the violets to my furs
And gave a lift to the crowds passing by

[Verse 2]
You smiled at me so sweetly
Since then, one thought occurs
That we fell in love completely
The day that you brought me violets for my furs

[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 2]
You smiled at me so sweetly
Since then, one thought occurs
That we fell in love completely
The day that you brought me violets for my furs
