Would You Like To Hear The Story Of

A Girl That Many Soldiers Know

It's A Tale Of Love And All Its Glory

They Tell When The Lights Are Soft And Low

Underneath The Lamp Post By The Barrack's Gate

Standing All Alone Every Night You See Her Wait

She Waits For The Boy Who Marched Away

And Though He's Gone She Hears Him Say

"Oh Promise You'll Be True Fare Thee Well Lili Marlene Till I'll Return To You

Fare Thee Well Lili Marlene"

With The Kiss She Gave Her Promise

To Be Constant As The Stars Up Above

Every Soldier Knows She Kept Her Promise

And She Has Been Faithful To Her Love

(Underneath The Lamp Post By The Barrack's Gate

Standing All Alone Every Night You See Her Wait

For This Is The Place A Vow Was Made And Breezes Sing Her Serenade)

Oh Promise You'll Be True Fare Thee Well Lily Marlene Till I'll Return To You

Fare Thee Well Lily Marlene



Although Each Tale Must Have An Ending

No One Knows Just What The End Will Be

But Tonight When Twilight Is Descending

If You'll Come Along Here's What You'll See

Underneath The Lamp Post By The Barrack's Gate

Standing All Alone Every Night You See Her Wait

And As They Go Marching To The Prey

The Soldiers All Salute And Say

"We'll Tell Him You've Been True.

Fare Thee Well Lili Marlene Till He Returns To You

Fare Thee Well Lili Marlene"
