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

By 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-oe

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 by the window

And watch the rain

Hi-lili, hi-lili, hi-lo

Tomorrow I'll probably love again

Hi-lili, hi-lili, hi-lo

Tomorrow I'll probably love again

Hi-lili, hi-lili, hi-lo...
