We'll Gather Lilacs

We'll Gather Lilacs - Webster Booth/Mary Ellis/Olive Gilbert

We'll gather lilacs in the spring again

And walk together down an english lane

Until our hearts have learned to sing again

When you come home once more

And in the evening by the firelight's glow

You'll hold me close and never let me go

Your eyes will tell me all I want to know

When you come home once more

Although you're far away

And life is sad and grey

I have a scheme a dream to try

I'm thinking dear of you

And all I meant to do

When we're together you and I

We'll soon forget our care and pain

And find such lovely things to share again

We'll gather lilacs in the spring again

And walk together down an english lane

Until our hearts have learned to sing again

When you come home once more

And in the evening by the firelight's glow

You'll hold me close and never let me go

Your eyes will tell me all I want to know

When you come home once more

We'll gather lilacs in the spring

We'll gather lilacs

When you come home once more
