Would you like to hear the story of A girl that many soldiers knowIt's a tale of love and all its glory They tell when the lights are soft and lowUnderneath the lamp post by the barrack's gateStanding all alone every night you see her waitShe 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 youFare thee well Lili Marlene"With the kiss she gave her promise To be constant as the stars up aboveEvery soldier knows she kept her promise And she has been faithful to her love(Underneath the lamp post by the barrack's gateStanding all alone every night you see her waitFor 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 youFare Thee well Lily MarleneAlthough each tale must have an ending No one knows just what the end will beBut tonight when twilight is descending If you'll come along here's what you'll seeUnderneath the lamp post by the barrack's gateStanding all alone every night you see her waitLetras de cancionesAnd 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 youFare thee well Lili Marlene" From Letras Mania
