|
In the shade of the old apple tree
|
Where the love in your eyes I could see
|
When the voice that I heard like the song of a bird
|
Seemed to whisper sweet music to me
|
|
I could hear the dull buzz of the bee
|
In the blossoms as you said to me
|
"With a heart that is true, I'll be waiting for you"
|
"In the shade of the old apple tree"
|
|
I could hear the dull buzz of the bee
|
In the blossoms as you said to me
|
"With a heart that is true, I'll be waiting for you"
|
"In the shade of the old apple tree"
