Lilli Marlene.

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. Feb 2001.

Underneath the lantern by the barrack gate,
Darling I remember the way you used to wait;

'Twas there that you whisper'd tenderly,
that you lov'd me, you'd always be,

My Lilli of the lamplight,
My own Lilli Marlene.

Time would come for roll~call, time for us to part,
Darling I'd 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 Lilli of the lamplight,
My own Lilli Marlene.

Orders came for sailing somewhere over there,
all confined to barracks was more than I could bear;

I knew you were waiting in the street,
I heard your feet, but could not meet;

My Lilli of the lamplight,
My own Lilli Marlene.

Resting in the billet just behind the line,
even tho' we're parted your lips are close to mine;

you wait where that lantern softly gleams,
your sweet face seems, to haunt my dreams,

My Lilli of the lamplight,
My own Lilli Marlene.
