Tulips and Heather
A spray of tulips and
heather,
tied up together
I sent my love today
A spray of tulips and
heather,
asking her whether
Love's dream had gone astray!
For there's a meaning to all the
flowers
They tell a story that never lies!
This purple heather, means lonely
hours
And tulips weep for a love that dies!
And so I pray when they
reach you,
if they can teach you
All that is in my heart
My spray of tulips and
heather,
bring us together
Never again to part!
( For
there's a meaning )
My tulips
and heather!
( To all the
flowers )
Are tied up together!
( They tell
a story . . . )
They tell you a tale . . .
that never lies!
( This
purple heather . . . )
This
beautiful heather . . .
( Means
lonely hours . . . )
Means
lonely forever . . .
( And tulips
weep for . . . )
These tulips convey a love that
dies!
And so I pray when they
reach you,
if they can teach you
All that is in my heart
My spray of tulips and
heather,
brings us together
Never again to part . . .
Darling! Never again to part . . .
