In The Shade Of The Old Apple Tree

Song: Egbert Van Alstyne, Harry Williams.

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 the bird,
Seem’d 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.”
