Lili Marlene Lyrics
Underneath the lantern
By the barracks gate
Darling, I remember the way
You used to wait
T'was there
That you whispered tenderly
That you love me
You'd always be
My Lili of the lamplight
My own Lili Marlene
Time would come for roll call
Time for us to part
Darling, I caress you
And press you to my heart
And there neath that
Far off lantern light
I'd hold you tight
We'd kiss goodnight
My Lili of the lamplight
My own Lili Marlene
Orders came for sailing
Somewhere over there
All confined to barracks
Was more than I could bear
I knew you were
Waiting there for me
So patiently
When will I see
My Lili of the lamplight
My own Lili Marlene

Resting in a billet
Just behind the line
Even though we're parted
Your lips are close to mine
You wait where
The lantern softly gleams
Your sweet face seems
To haunt my dreams
My Lili of the lamplight
My own Lili Marlene
My Lili of the lamplight
My own Lili Marlene
