In Lavender And Green

Will you come to me in lavender and green?
With bells about your feet
And music in your step
When you come to me in lavender and green.

Will you come to me in lavender and green?
With sunshine in your eyes
And springtime in your hair
When you come to me in lavender and green.

Will you come to me in lavender and green?
With softness in your words
And healing in your touch
When you come to me in lavender and green.

Will you come to me in lavender and green?
With your name upon my lips
And delight within your kiss
When you come to me in lavender and green.

Will you come to me in lavender and green?
In dreams at midnight’s rest
Or afternoon’s recline
Come then to me in lavender and green.

Will you come to me in lavender and green?
At the setting of the sun
When my days are nearly run
Still come to me in lavender and green.

Will you come to me in lavender and green?
If I wait at heaven’s door,
As I waited once before
While you walked to organ’s tune
On a summer’s afternoon.
Now dressed in springtime hues,
My love, companion, muse,
A vision still I see,
Dressed in lavender and green.
