We'll Gather Lilacs

(Album: Home Sweet Home - 2014)

We'll gather lilacs in the spring again
And walk together down a British 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 long 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 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

We'll gather lilacs in the spring again
And walk together down a British 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
