- We'll Gather Lilacs
And Life is sad and grey
I have a scheme, a dream to try
I'm thinking, dear of you
And all I mean 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.
REFRAIN:
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 learn to love anew
The simple joys we knew
And shared together night and
day
We'll watch without a sigh
The moments speeding by
When life is free and hearts
are gay
My dream is here for you to
share
And in my heart my dream becomes
a prayer.
