I can see a little nook
where water lilies grow;
moon beams dancing on a lazy stream;
mem'ries paint a picture
of the happy long ago;
once again I'm drifting in a dream.

Do you remember
water lilies in the moonlight?
A silver stream
where we would dream
the hours through.
Do you remember?
like the lilies
in the moon light
we closed our eyes
and saw a paradise for two.
Then we kissed and said "Goodnight"
'neath a starlit sky;
little did I know that night
that your kiss meant "Goodbye"
Do you remember
water lilies in the moonlight?
And will our dream
beside the stream some day come true.

Do you remember
water lilies in the moonlight?
A silver stream
where we would dream
the hours through.
Do you remember?
like the lilies
in the moon light
we closed our eyes
and saw a paradise for two.
Then we kissed and said "Goodnight"
'neath a starlit sky;
little did I know that night
that your kiss meant "Goodbye"
Do you remember
water lilies in the moonlight?
And will our dream
beside the stream some day come true.

Once again I see the lilies
sleeping by the shore;
where I held you closely to my heart
how I wish that you and I
could start anew once more;
never would we ever drift apart.

Do you remember
water lilies in the moonlight?
A silver stream
where we would dream
the hours through.
Do you remember?
like the lilies
in the moon light
we closed our eyes
and saw a paradise for two.
Then we kissed and said "Goodnight"
'neath a starlit sky;
little did I know that night
that your kiss meant "Goodbye"
Do you remember
water lilies in the moonlight?
And will our dream
beside the stream some day come true.

'neath a starlit sky;
little did I know that night
that your kiss meant "Goodbye"
Do you remember
water lilies in the moonlight?
And will our dream
beside the stream some day come true.
