Track byBillie Holiday
It was winter in Manhattan Falling snowflakes filled the air The streets were covered with a film of ice But a little simple magic that I'd heard about somewhere Changed the weather all around, just within' a trice 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
