Fancy brings a thought to me
Of flowers bright and fair
Grace and beauty there combine
To make that thought more rare
Like a maiden that I know
Who shared my happy lot
Where we parted when she whispered
"You'll forget me not"
She's graceful and she's charming like the lilies in the pond
Time has passed so swiftly for of her I'm so fond
Daisies and the roses too, they grow around the spot
There we parted and I whispered, "You'll forget me not"
We met I really don't know where
But still 'tis all the same
For love walks in busy streets
As well as in the lane
I gently pressed her tiny hand
She glanced at me a shot
She dropped a flower, I picked it up
A sweet forget-me-not
She's graceful and she's charming like the lilies in the pond
Time has passed so swiftly for of her I'm so fond
Daisies and the roses too, they grow around the spot
There we parted and I whispered, "You'll forget me not"
At last there came a happy day
And something that I said
Just caused her lips to murmer, "Yes"
And shortly we were wed
A little garden by the brook
And a tiny garden spot
Where grows a little flower called
A sweet forget-me-not
She's graceful and she's charming like the lilies in the pond
Time has passed so swiftly for of her I'm so fond
Daisies and the roses too, they grow around the spot
There we parted and I whispered, "You'll forget me not"
