about

Music by Reginald de Koven, lyrics by Clement Scott. Adapted and arranged by Joe Flood.

lyrics

Oh, promise me that some day you and I
Will take our love together to some sky
Where we can be alone and faith renew
And find the hollows where those flowers grew
Those first sweet violets of early spring
That come in whispers, thrill us both, and sing
Of love unspeakable that is to be
Oh, promise me, oh, promise me

Oh, promise me that you will take my hand
The most unworthy in this lonely land
And let me sit beside you in your eyes
Seeing the vision of our paradise
Hearing God's message while the organ rolls
Its mighty music to our very souls
No love less perfect than our life to be
Oh, promise me, oh, promise me
