Great Big Sea - Sweet Forget-Me-Not lyrics

Fancy brings a thought to me of
A flower so bright and fair
Grance and beauty
Both combine to make that far more rare
Like a maiden that I know
Who shared my happy life
Where we parted, when she whispered
"You'll forget-me not"

She's graceful and she's charming like
The lillies 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
She's graceful and she's charming like
The lillies 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"

And then there came a happy time
When something that I said
Caused her lips to murmur "yes"
Shortly we were wed
Now there's a cottage by a lane
And a tiny garden spot
There grows a flower, I know it well
It's the sweet forget-me not

She's graceful and she's charming like
The lillies 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 you'll forget me not"
