1152. HI-LILI, HI-LO 1952 |
ON EVERY TREE THERE SITS A BIRD,
SINGING A SONG OF LOVE.
ON EVERY TREE THERE SITS A BIRD,
AND EVERY ONE I EVER HEARD,
COULD BREAK MY HEART WITHOUT A WORD,
SINGING A SONG OF LOVE.
CHORUS
A SONG OF LOVE IS A SAD SONG,
HI-LILI, HI-LILI, HI-LO.
A SONG OF LOVE IS A SONG OF WOE,
DON’T ASK ME HOW I KNOW.
A SONG OF LOVE IS A SAD SONG,
FOR I HAVE LOVED AND IT’S SO.
I SIT AT THE WINDOW AND WATCH THE RAIN,
HI- LILI, HI- LILI, HI- LO.
TOMORROW I’LL PROBABLY LOVE AGAIN,
HI- LIU, HI- LILI, HI- LO.
A TEAR FOR HIM, A TEAR FOR ME,
A TEAR FOR THE LOVE HE SWORE.
A TEAR FOR HIM, AND ONE FOR ME,
AND ONE FOR UNDER THE CEDAR TREE,
AND ONE FOR WHEREVER MY LOVE MAY BE,
AND THEN I SHALL WEEP NO MORE.
REPEAT CHORUS
