Some one is always sitting thereA
In the little green orchardB
Even when the sun is highC
In noon's unclouded skyC
And faintly droning goesD
The bee from rose to roseD
Some one in shadow is sitting thereA
In the little green orchardB
-
Yes and when twilight is falling softlyE
In the little green orchardB
When the grey dew distilsD
And every flower cup fillsD
When the last blackbird saysD
What what and goes her way s shF
I have heard voices calling softlyE
In the little green orchardB
-
Not that I am afraid of being thereA
In the little green orchardB
Why when the moon's been brightG
Shedding her lonesome lightG
And moths like ghosties comeH
And the horned snail leaves homeI
I've sat there whispering and listening thereA
In the little green orchardB
-
Only it's strange to be feeling thereA
In the little green orchardB
Whether you paint or drawJ
Dig hammer chop or sawJ
When you are most aloneK
All but the silence goneL
Some one is waiting and watching thereA
In the little green orchardB
