The violets were scenting the woods, Maggie Displaying their 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 glades, Maggie A robin sang aloud from the tree When I first said I loved only you, Maggie And you said you loved only me A golden row of 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 happy a trance for us to be When I first said I loved only you, Maggie And you said you loved only me Our dreams, they have never come true, Maggie Our hopes, they never were to be When I first said I loved only you, Maggie And you said you loved only me You said you loved only me.
