VERSE 01: 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 VERSE 02: Tho’ goodbye means the birth of a tear drop/Hello means the birth of a smile/And the smile will erase/The tear blighting trace/When we meet in the after awhile | |
