Darling Lili
|
Put a light in the window
|
And keep wearing that bonny smile
|
On those cold railway benches
|
Or in the trenches
|
Warm up our hearts a while
|
|
Darling Lili
|
Blow a kiss to us, dearie
|
As we travel each weary mile
|
Not for mother or each other
|
Are we off to end this war
|
You're the darling
|
We"ll be winning it for
|
|
Smile away each rainy day
|
And laugh away your blues
|
Let love light the sky up
|
Tell those clouds to dry up
|
And smile away each rainy day
|
|
I'll give you three guesses
|
Who loves you
|
Who's loved you
|
Right from the start
|
Not your mother
|
Who likes to baby you so
|
And not the girl next door
|
You used to know
|
|
