We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when

But I know we'll meet again some sunny day

Keep smiling through, just like you always do

Till the blue skies drive the dark clouds far away


So will you please say Hello, to the folks that I know

Tell them I won't be long

They'll be happy to know, that as you saw me go

I was singing this song


We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when

But I know we'll meet again some sunny day


We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when

But I know we'll meet again some sunny day

Keep smiling through, just like you always do

Till the blue skies drive the dark clouds far away


So will you please say Hello, to the folks that I know

Tell them I won't be long

They'll be happy to know, that as you saw me go

I was singing this song


We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when

But I know we'll meet again some sunny day
