Maybe the owner recently had a romantic disappointment? Or perhaps (s)he was really thinking about the owning of racehorses - "Tomorrow I'll probably love again" - ain't that the truth? I sometimes wonder what is the reason behind some of these horse names, assuming there is any reason.
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.

9 years 9 months agoThe original was done by Lesley Caron but I was only three at the time so the owner must be an old punter
