We'll Gather Lilacs lyrics

Lonely the road

When you travel alone

Sad is the heart

When your loved one is gone

Blue skies are grey skies

No spring clouds appear

Hope is a stranger

Who once seemed so near

Yet in your absence,

I dream happy dreams,

Dreams of the future

While bright sunlight gleams

Hoping and praying

That dreams come true

Planning the dear things

Once more we shall do

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 are 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 are home once more

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 are 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 are home once more

We'll gather lilacs in the spring

When you are home once more
