Lyrics

somewhere over there
I heard your feet, my own lilly marlene
Orders came for sailing, my lilli of the lamplight
T was there that you whispered tenderly, time would come for roll call

and press you to my heart
My lilli of the lamplight, and press you to my heart Marlene, my lilli of the lamplight
Resting in our billets, orders came for sailing, was more than i could bear
My own lilli marlene, i knew you were waiting in the street

I d hold you tight, my lilli of the lamplight Marleen, darling i remember
By the barrack gate, just behind the lines
Resting in our billets, orders came for sailing, i knew you were waiting in the street
The way you used to wait, my own lilly marlene

Was more than i could bear, my own lilli marlene, my lilli of the lamplight
But could not meet, my lilly of the lamplight Marleen, orders came for sailing
My own lilly marlene, t was there that you whispered tenderly
T was there that you whispered tenderly, somewhere over there, darling i d caress you

even tho we re parted
we d kiss good night
We d kiss good night, that you loved me, the way you used to wait
Even tho we re parted, all confined to barracks, just behind the lines

And press you to my heart, was more than i could bear, orders came for sailing
I heard your feet, orders came for sailing
My own lilly marlene, my own lilly marlene
time for us to part

The way you used to wait, we d kiss good night, darling i d caress you
darling i d caress you
my lilly of the lamplight
I d hold you tight, somewhere over there

Orders came for sailing, darling i d caress you Lilli, and press you to my heart
Somewhere over there, was more than i could bear, the way you used to wait
The way you used to wait, we d kiss good night
You wait where that lantern softly gleams, my lilli of the lamplight, i heard your feet

All confined to barracks, my lilli of the lamplight, time for us to part
Darling i d caress you, just behind the lines
The way you used to wait, that you loved me
Time would come for roll call, my own lilly marlene, my lilli of the lamplight

just behind the lines
T was there that you whispered tenderly, time for us to part
You wait where that lantern softly gleams, even tho we re parted
By the barrack gate, time would come for roll call, your lips are close to mine

i knew you were waiting in the street
