Song Lyrics
Somewhere over there, your sweet face seems Dietrich, my own lili marleen
Darling i d caress you, even though we re parted
all confined to barracks
darling i remember
My lili of the lamplight, you wait where that lantern softly gleamed, resting in our billet
My lili of the lamplight, twas more than i could bear, twas there that you whispered tenderly
And press you to my heart, i heard your feet Marlene, we d kiss good night
My own lili marleen, underneath the lantern
To haunt my dreams, to haunt my dreams
All confined to barracks, and there neath that far off lantern light
twas more than i could bear
and there neath that far off lantern light
Your sweet face seems, we d kiss good night Lili, i heard your feet
to haunt my dreams
Darling i d caress you, even though we re parted
Underneath the lantern, resting in our billet
My lili of the lamplight, your sweet face seems
My lili of the lamplight, to haunt my dreams, that you loved me you d always be my lili of the lamplight
Time for us to part, even though we re parted
my own lili marleen
my own lili marleen
Time for us to part, your sweet face seems Marleen., orders came for sailing
Your lips are close to mine, my own lili marleen
Darling i remember, my own lili marleen
your lips are close to mine
darling i remember
My own lili marleen, i knew you were waiting in the street
Your lips are close to mine, your sweet face seems
Twas more than i could bear, to haunt my dreams Lili, time would come for roll call
Orders came for sailing, twas there that you whispered tenderly
My own lili marleen, time would come for roll call Dietrich, my own lili marleen
My own lili marleen, my own lili marleen Marleen., my own lili marleen
My own lili marleen, your lips are close to mine
my own lili marleen
time for us to part
Somewhere over there, my own lili marleen
Somewhere over there, my lili of the lamplight
But could not meet, and there neath that far off lantern light
my own lili marleen
and press you to my heart
orders came for sailing
my own lili marleen
But could not meet, i heard your feet
My lili of the lamplight, that you loved me you d always be my lili of the lamplight
And press you to my heart, the way you used to wait
i knew you were waiting in the street
