The Four Aces, Leslie Caron and
Mel Ferrer (#30 in 1953)
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.
