Great Big Sea - Graceful & Charming (sweet Forget-Me-Not) LYRICS

Graceful & Charming (sweet Forget-Me-Not) Lyrics

Fancy brings a thought to me
Of a flower so bright and fair
Grace and beauty both combine
To make that thought 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"

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

And then there came a happy time
When something that I said
Caused her lips to murmur, "Yes"
And shortly we were wed
And now there's a cottage by a lake
and a tiny garden spot
there grows a little flower
I know it well
It's the sweet forget-me-not

CHORUS
