Lyrics

The violets were scenting the woods
Maggie, displaying the charms to the breeze
When I first said I loved only you
Maggie, and you said you loved only me
The chestnut blooms gleamed through 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-robed daffodils shone
Maggie, and danced with the leaves on the breeze
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
Our dreams they have never come true
Maggie, our hopes they were never to be
When I first said I loved only you
Maggie, and you said you loved only me
Written by: George Johnson, James Austin Butterfield, [traditional]
