Emmylou Harris

Roses are red violets are blue
Primroses pale on a velvet green hue
Warm summer days by cool waterfalls
Like 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 love to return
And the violins play from behind garden walls
Oh how I'd love to remain with the silver refrain
Of an old fashioned waltz
SOLO
And 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 as the nightingale calls
With only the moon and the nostalgic tune
Of an old fashioned waltz
