Lady in Satin Billie Holiday & Ray Ellis - Violets For Your Furs (Columb...

You bought me violets for my furs
And it was spring for a while, remember?
You bought me violets for my furs
And there was April in that December

The snow drifted on the flowers and melted where it lay
The snow looked like dew on the blossoms
As on a Summer day

You bought me violets for my furs
And there was blue in the wintry sky
You pinned the violets to my furs
And gave a lift to the crowds passing by

You smiled at me so sweetly
Since then one thought occurs
That we fell in love completely
The day you bought me violets for my furs

You smiled at me so sweetly
Since then one thought occurs
That we fell in love completely
The day you bought me violets for my furs
