't was on the Isle of Capri that I found her Beneath the shade of an old walnut tree Oh, I can still see the flowers blooming round her Where we met on the Isle of Capri
She was as sweet as a rose at the dawning But somehow fate hadn't meant her for me And though I sailed with the tide in the morning Still my heart's on the Isle of Capri
Summertime was nearly over Blue Italian sky above I said "Lady, I'm a rover, Can you spare a sweet word of love?"
She whispered softly "It's best not to linger" And then as I kissed her hand I could see She wore a lovely meatball on her finger 't was goodbye at the villa Capri
Summertime was nearly over Blue Italian sky above I said "Lady, I'm a rover, Can you spare a fine word of love?"
She whispered softly "It's best not to linger" And then as I kissed her hand I could see She wore a plain golden ring on her finger 't was goodbye on the Isle of Capri 't was goodbye on the Isle of Capri 't was goodbye on the Isle of Capri
Night and you and Blue Hawaii The night is heavenly and you are heaven to me Lovely you and Blue Hawaii With all this loveliness there should be love
Come with me while the moon is on the sea The night is young and so are we, so are we Dreams come true in Blue Hawaii And mine could all come true this magic night of nights with you
Come with me while the moon is on the sea (the moon is on the sea) The night is young and so are we (so are we) Dreams come true in Blue Hawaii And mine could all come true this magic night of nights with you
Outside the barracks by the corner light I'll always stand and wait for you at night We will create a world for two I'll wait for you the whole night through For you, Lili Marlene For you, Lili Marlene
Bugler tonight, don't play the Call To Arms I want another evening with her charms Then we will say goodbye and part I'll always keep you in my heart With me, Lili Marlene With me, Lili Marlene
Give me a rose to show how much you care Tied to the stem, a lock of golden hair Surely tomorrow you'll feel blue But then will come a love that's new For you, Lili Marlene For you, Lili Marlene
When we are marching in the mud and cold And when my pack seems more than I can hold My love for you renews my might I'm warm again, my pack is light It's you, Lili Marlene It's you, Lili Marlene
My love for you renews my might I'm warm again, my pack is light It's you, Lili Marlene It's you, Lili Marlene
