Violets For Your Furs Lyrics

    Tom adair / matt dennis

    It was winter in manhattan
    Falling snowflakes filled the air
    The streets were covered with a film of ice
    But a little simple magic that i'd heard about somewhere
    Changed the weather all around, just withn a trice

    You bought me violets for my furs
    And it was spring for a while, remember?
    You bought me violets for my furs
    And there was april in that december
    The snow drifted on the flowers and melted where it lay
    The snow looked leke dew on the blossoms
    As on a summer day

    You bought me violets for my furs
    Aand there was blue in the wintry sky
    You pinned the violets to my furs
    And gave a lift to the crowds passing by
    You smiled at me so sweetly
    Since then one thought occurs
    That we fell in love completely
    The day you bought me violets for my furs
