On every tree there sits a bird
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 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-lili, hi-lili, hi-lo

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-lili, hi-lili, hi-lo
