Verse 1

 N/

They're playing our song, Margarita

 Dance it this last time with me.

 It won't be long, Margarita

 Soon I'll be overseas.

 Let me know that you'll care

 When I've gone over there.

 They're playing our song, Margarita.

 Dance it this last time with me.

Verse 2

Kiss me again, Margarita.

 Give me a memory of you.

 They say in France, Margarita,

 One more push, we'll be through.

 Yes, I'll write, but where from?

 All they'll say is 'The Somme'.

 Kiss me again, Margarita.

 Give me a memory of you.

Chorus

 It's a new world, Margarita,

 That we'll build when it's through.

 In that new world, Margarita,

 We'll be wed, me and you.

Verse 3

 N/

My old great aunt Margarita,

 She'd been blind thirty years,

 Would tell me of young Margarita

 Of her man and her tears.

 She would say 'He was tall,

 There's his picture on the wall.'

 My old great aunt Margarita,

 She'd been blind thirty years.

Verse 4

And she would ask, 'Is he smiling?'

 I would stare at the frame,

 But the sun was there shining

 Through her window again.

 Where that sun always shone

 He had faded and gone.

 But she would ask 'Is he smiling?'

 I would say 'He's the same'.

Chorus

 It's a new world, Margarita,

 That we'll build when it's through.

 In that new world, Margarita,

 We'll be wed, me and you.
