Album: Grey Gardens - A New Musical Soundtrack

Will You?

[Edith](spoken)
Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome! Welcome to Grey Gardens! I'd like to commence our little tribute to young love with
one of our all-time favorites. Gould... "Will You?"

(sung)
When lilacs return in spring,
Will you?
When larks in the meadows sing,
Will you?
When clouds of a summer storm dissolve
And starlight shimmers through,
Will you?
When wild geese of autumn fly,
Will you?
When hearth fires of winter die,
Will you?
Time rushes by.
Memories fade.
Dreams never do.
I will be ever true.
Will you?

(spoken)
Edie's going to be tickled pink to see you all here. I'm afraid she's slipped away for the moment. The Guest of Honor! She's
missing in action. Nerves, I'm sure. But she won't be gone for long! I just know it. Why just look at the garden! The sound
of the ocean! And all of you, here, all of you come to celebrate... Edie... my little Edie... Why, I've no doubt any minute
she'll come breezing down the stairs... or surprise us, maybe, through the patio doors... because I ask you... who could ever
bear to leave?

(sung)
When wild geese of autumn fly,
Will you?
As I lay there wond'ring why,
Will you?
Time rushes by.
Memories fade.
Dreams never do.
I will be ever true...
Will you?
