Carly Simon - LILI MARLENE lyrics

rate me

(M. David/N. Schulze/H. Leip)

Outside the barracks by the corner light

Darling I remember how I'd wait for you at night

There we'd create a world for two, I'd wait for you

The whole night through, was there that you'd whisper tenderly

That you loved me, you'd always be

Be my Lili Marlene, be my Lili Marlene

I'd give you a rose to show I care,

And wind it through your golden hair

Then we would say goodnight and part,

I'll always keep you in my heart

With me Lili Marlene, with me Lili Marlene

My Lili of the lamplight, my own Lili Marlene
