[00:00.62]Lilli Marlene - Vera Lynn
[00:11.03]Underneath the lantern by the barrack gate
[00:15.45]
[00:15.98]Darling I remember the way you used to wait
[00:21.24]Was there that you whispered tenderly
[00:26.33]That you loved me
[00:28.96]You'd always be
[00:31.59]My Lili of the lamplight
[00:36.52]My own Lili Marlene
[00:42.22]Time would come for roll call
[00:45.16]Time for us to part
[00:47.30]
[00:47.89]Darling I'd caress you and press you to my heart
[00:52.72]There 'neath that far off lantern light
[00:57.87]I'd hold you tight
[01:00.49]We'd kiss good-night
[01:03.16]My Lili of the lamplight
[01:07.89]My own Lili Marlene
[01:13.43]
[01:13.99]Orders came for sailing somewhere over there
[01:19.13]All confined to barracks was more than I could bear
[01:23.94]I knew you were waiting in the street
[01:29.23]I heard your feet
[01:31.38]
[01:31.95]But could not meet
[01:34.46]My Lili of the lamplight
[01:39.26]My own Lili Marlene
[01:44.32]
[01:45.19]Resting in a billet just behind the line
[01:50.53]Even tho' we're parted your lips are close to mine
[01:55.50]You wait where that lantern softly gleams
[02:00.53]Your sweet face seems to haunt my dreams
[02:05.75]My Lili of the lamplight
[02:10.42]My own Lili Marlene
[02:15.91]My Lili of the lamplight
[02:21.19]My own Lili Marlene
[02:30.77]
