A Little White Gardenia

For I bring a little white gardenia


As refreshing as a day in May


You may wear it if you care


Or toss it away





If you look into this white gardenia


There's a message there I dare not say


That I'll let this little white gardenia convey.





Who knows tomorrow we may be


Together or so far apart


Take this token of my love


Cherish it and keep it close to your heart





If our paths should ever cross again dear


Accidentally, or by fate designed


If you wear a little white gardenia


I'll know you are mine.





Who knows tomorrow we may be


Together or so far apart


Take this token of my love


Cherish it and keep it close to your heart





If our paths should ever cross again dear


Accidentally, or by fate designed


If you wear a little white gardenia


I'll know you are mine.
