Subject: Lyr Add: SWEET FORGET ME NOT (GRACEFUL & CHARMING)
SWEET FORGET-ME-NOT (GRACEFUL & CHARMING)

1. Fancy brings a thought to me of a flower so bright and fair.
Grace and beauty, both combine to make that far more rare,
Like a maiden that I know who shared my happy lot,
Where we parted, when she whispered, "You'll forget me not".

CHORUS: She's graceful and she's charming like the lilies in the pond.
Time is flowing swiftly by. Of her I am so fond.
The roses and the daisies they bloom around the spot
Where we parted, when she whispered, "You'll forget me not".

2. We met I really don't know where. I guess it's all the same.
Love grows in a village green as well as in a lane.
I gently took her by the hand and a glance at me she shot.
She dropped a flower. I picked it up. It was a sweet forget-me-not. CHORUS

3. And then there came a happy time when something that I said
Caused her lips to murmur "Yes". Shortly we were wed.
Now there's a cottage by a lane and a tiny garden spot.
There grows a flower, I know it well. It's the sweet forget-me-not. CHORUS
