Artist/Band: Emmylou Harris
Lyrics for Song: Like an Old Fashioned Waltz
Lyrics for Album: Songbird: Rare Tracks And Forgotten Gems [2007]



(Sandy Denny)



Roses are red

Violets are blue

Primrose is pale

On the velvet green hue

Warm summer days

Like cool water falls

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 love to remain

With the silver refrain

Of an old fashioned waltz.



And they dance 'round the floor

And there's no one else there

In the world is no worry

And is never a care

By the perfect moon

As the nightingale calls

With only the moon

And the nostalgic tune

Of an old fashioned waltz...
