WHAT'LL WE DO WHEN THE WATTLE BLOOMS AGAIN
(Music: Reginald A. A. Stoneham /Lyrics: Emily Maud Robb - c.1918)







When Winter's gloom is over and skies are blue
And all the world's in love and I love you
When we have forgotten the cold and rain
What'll we do when the wattle blooms again 

What'll we do when the wattle blooms again
We'll go a-roaming, by the river's fringe of waving gold
In the gloaming, heart to heart and hand in hand
Always to love and understand
That's what we'll do when the wattle blooms again
And I come back to you

When smiling Spring is here and all is fair
On ev'ry breeze a sigh and songbirds pair
And nature, so joyous, will sing this refrain
What'll they do when the wattle blooms again

What'll we do when the wattle blooms again
We'll go a-roaming, by the river's fringe of waving gold
In the gloaming, heart to heart and hand in hand
Always to love and understand
That's what we'll do when the wattle blooms again
And I come back to you
