A WWII hero is dying and I thought he might recognize this song. I also posted the request for Lili Marlene in German and English for the same purpose. My hand slipped before I inserted the text of the previous request. Thanks.

I think there's more, a lead-in verse. I haven't heard it often, but it's a bit short, otherwise.

The words of the lead-in verse are

I'll never forget the people I met Braving those angry skies I remember when the shadows fell The light of hope in their eyes And though I'm far away I still can hear them say Thumbs up, For when the dawn comes up There'll be bluebirds etc

If I remember correctly, I heard that once with the intro verse above being spoken. I think possibly in a movie. I have an old magazine add for the movie and know Irene Dunne played in it. To answer though, you should be able to find the sheet music for it at any reputable music shop. Kindest reguards, Neil
