I'm sending red roses and violets of blue, girl (Violets of blue, girl)
The roses mean I love you
The violets mean I'll always be true, girl (Be true, girl)
Because I really love you
And I truly, truly believe, yes I do
In spite of the way you're acting that you love me too
Come on and say you do
You try to keep me away, girl
Just to prove you don't really care
But I believe you feel the same way I do
And this torture just ain't fair (No, this torture just ain't fair)

I'm sending you a bracelet engraved in gold (Sending you a bracelet baby)
That I love you girl (Love you, girl)
And I'd send my heart if I could
To prove I'll always be true girl
Because I really love you ('Cause I really love you)
And I truly, truly believe, yes I do (Yes I do)
In spite of the way you acting, that you love me too
Come on and say it dear
Oh, say it dear

I hope you'd understand
That the red roses and violets of blue, girl (Hope you'd understand)
And that bright shining bracelet
Helps me, baby to say I love you (I love you, love you)
And I really love you ('Cause I really love you)
And I truly, truly believe, yes I do (Yes, I do)
I believe that you love me
So baby, come on and say it, say it
(I truly believe, yes I do, yes I do, yes I do)
I truly, truly believe, yes I do
I truly, truly believe, yes I do
(I truly believe, yes I do, yes I do, yes I do)
(I truly believe, yes I do, yes I do, yes I do)
