Maggie - Barnbrack

The violets are scenting the woods, Maggie

Displaying their charms to the bees

When I first said I loved only you, Maggie

And you said you loved only me

The chestnut bloom gleams thru the glade, Maggie

A robin sang loud from a tree

When I first said I loved only you, Maggie

And you said you loved only me

The golden row daffodils shine, Maggie

And danced in the breeze on the lee

When I first said I loved only you, Maggie

And you said you loved only me

The birds in the trees sang a song, Maggie

Of happier transports to be

When I first said I loved only you, Maggie

And you said you loved only me

Our hopes they have never come true, Maggie

Our dreams, they were never to be

Since I first said I loved only you, Maggie

And you said you loved only me
