Underneath the lantern By the barrack gate Darling I remember The way you used to wait 'Twas there that you whispered tenderly That you loved me You'd always be My Lili of the lamplight My own Lili 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 good night My Lili of the lamplight My own Lili Marlene Orders came for sailing Somewhere over there All confined to barracks 'Twas more than I could bear I knew you were waiting in the street I heard your feet But could not meet My Lili of the lamplight My own Lili Marlene Resting in our billet Just behind the line Even though we're parted Your lips are close to mine You wait where that lantern softly gleamed Your sweet face seems To haunt my dreams My Lili of the lamplight My own Lili Marlene My Lili of the lamplight My own Lili Marlene.
