We'll gather Lilacs - Ivor Novello (Key F)

We'll Gather Lilacs, also called We'll Gather Lilacs In The Spring, is a song by Welsh composer Ivor Novello written for the hit musical romance Perchance to Dream. The song became the most popular and enduring of the production and is still a favourite today.

Written as World War II was coming to its end, the song describes the yearning of parted couples to be reunited and evokes the joy they would feel when together once again, and the pleasures of the English countryside in spring.
