Green Grows The Laurel

Green grows the laurel, soft falls the dew
 Sorry am I to be parted from you
 Sorry am I that you proved untrue
 And you changed the green laurel for the violet so blue
 You walked past my window both early and late
 The looks that you give me they make my heart ache
 The looks that you give me they caused me to rue
 That you changed the green laurel for the violet so blue
 Green grows the laurel, soft falls the dew
 Sorry am I to be parted from you
 Sorry am I that you proved untrue
 And you changed the green laurel for the violet so blue
 I wrote her a letter, a few rosy lines
 He wrote me letter all twisted and twined
 You write to your love and I'll write to mine
 You stick with your love and I'll stick with mine
 Green grows the laurel, soft falls the dew
 Sorry am I to be parted from you
 Sorry am I that you proved untrue
 And you changed the green laurel for the violet so blue
 Green grows the laurel, soft falls the dew
 Sorry am I to be parted from you
 Sorry am I that you proved untrue
 And you changed the green laurel for the violet so blue
