EVER A SONG SOMEWHERE.

EVER A SONG SOMEWHERE.
There is ever a song somewhere, my
dear
There is ever a something sings
always
There's the song of the lark when the
skies are clear,
And the song of the thrush when
the skies are gray,
The sunshine showers across the
grain,
And the bluebird trills in the
orchard tree,
And in and out when the caves drip
The swallows are twittering cease
lessly.
There is ever song somewhere, my
dear.
Be the skies above or dark or fair
There is ever song that our hearts
may hear,
There is ever a song somewhere, my
dear,
There is ever a song somewhere!
There is ever song somewhere, my
dear,
In the midnight black or the mid
day blue
The robin pipes when the sun is here
And the cricket chirrups the whole
night through.
The buds may blow, and the frui
may grow,
And the autumn leaves drop crlsl
and sere;
But whether the sun or the rain O.
the snow,
There is ever song somewhere
my dear
There is ever song somewhere, m
dear,
Be the skies above or dark or fan
There is ever a song that our heart
may hear.
There is ever a song somewhere, M
dear;
There is ever a song somewhere
