Hi-Lili, Hi-Lo
Bronislaw Kaper, Helen Deutsch
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 your heart without a word
Singing a song of love
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 you have loved and it's so
You sit at the window and watch the rain,
Hi-Lili, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lo
Tomorrow you'll probably love again,
Hi-Lili, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lo.
Hi-Lili, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lo
A song of love is a song of woe
A song of love is a sad song
For you have loved and it's so
You sit at the window and watch the rain,
Hi-Lili, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lo
Tomorrow you'll probably love again,
Hi-Lili, Hi-Lili, Hi-Lo
