Verse : Sometimes , between long shadows on the grass
Lyrics
VERSE 1 : Sometimes , between long shadows on the grass , The little truant waves of sunlight pass , My eyes grow dim with tenderness , the while , Thinking I see thee , Thinking I see thee smile ! VERSE 2 : And sometimes , in the twilight gloom , apart , The tall trees whisper , whisper heart to heart , From my fond lips the eager answers fall , Thinking I hear thee , Thinking I hear thee call !
