I just couldn't let this Raggedy Ann NOT get
on
the page. We can't see all of her, but ALL
you need to see is this sweet face.

TILL WE MEET AGAIN
(verse 1)
There's a song in the land of the li-ly
Each sweet heart has heard with a sigh
O-ver high gar-den walls this sweet e-cho falls
As a sol-dier boy whis-pers good-bye.
(chorus)
Smile the while you kiss me sad a-dieu
When the clouds roll by I'll come to you
Then the skies will seem more blue
Down in lov-ers lane my dearie
Wedding bells will ring so mer-ri-ly
Ev-'ry tear will be a mem-o-ry
So wait and pray each night for me
Till we meet again.
(chorus)
Smile the while you kiss me sad a-dieu
When the clouds roll by I'll come to you
Then the skies will seem more blue
Down in lov-ers lane my dear-ie
Wed-ding bells will ring so mer-ri-ly
Ev-'ry tear will be a mem-o-ry
So wait and pray each night for me
Till we meet again.
(somehow when I sing along I
can't fit
in the second verse- only the
first verse and 2 chorus's)
(verse 2)
Tho' good-bye means the birth os a tear drop,
Hel-lo means the birth of a smile.
And the smile will e-rase the blight-ing trace,
when we meet in the af-ter-a-while.
