Verse:

There's a song in the land of the lily,

Each sweetheart has heard with a sigh.

Over high garden walls, This sweet echo falls,

As a soldier boy whispers goodbye.

 

Chorus:

Smile the while you kiss me sad adieu,
When the clouds roll by I'll come to you.
Then the skies will seem more blue,
Down in lovers lane my dearie,
Wedding bells will ring so merrily,
Ev'ry tear will be a memory,

So wait and pray each night for me,
Till We Meet Again.
