Violets So Blue by The Holy Modal Rounders Lyrics

[Spoken]
This goes out to Elza, mon petit fleur, my little flower

[Song]
Oh the violets so blue
Calling for you
The roses make me feel lonely
It brings to my mind
That sweet, happy time
When your love was only for me

But why should I feel lonesome?
Why should I feel sad?
When another has taken from me
The best pal that I've ever had

She's taken the sunshine with her
And leaving the clouds for me
But why should I feel so lonesome
When there's nobody lonesome for me?
She's taken the sunshine with her
And leaving the clouds for me
But why should I feel so lonesome
When there's nobody lonesome for me?

The violets so blue
Calling for you
The roses make me feel lonely
It brings to my mind
That sweet, happy time
When your love was only for me

But why should I feel lonesome?
Why should I feel sad?
When another has taken from me
The best pal that I've ever had

She's taken the sunshine with her
And leaving the clouds for me
But why should I feel so lonesome
When there's nobody lonesome for me?

But why should I feel so lonesome
When there's nobody lonesome for me?
