(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
