Lilli Marlene

Song composer: Hans Leip, Norbert Schultze

Lyrics author: J.J. Phillips, Tommie Connor

Underneath the lamplight

By the barrack gate

Darling I remember

The way you used to wait

Twas there that you whispered tenderly

That you loved me

And would always be

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 could hear your feet

But could not meet

My Lilli of the lamplight

My own Lilli 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 Lilli of the lamplight

My own Lilli Marlene

My own Lilli Marlene

My own Lilli Marlene

Go back
