Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Skylark, have you anything to say to me?
Won't you tell me where my love can be?
Is there a meadow in the mist
Where someone's waiting to be kissed?
[Verse 2]
Skylark, have you seen a valley green with spring
Where my heart can go a-journeying
Over the shadows and the rain
To a blossom covered lane?
[Verse 3]
And in your lonely flight
Haven't you heard the music of the night?
Wonderful music
Faint as a will-o'-the-wisp, crazy as a loon
Sad as a gypsy serenading the moon
[Verse 4]
Oh, skylark, I don't know if you can find these things
But my heart is riding on your wings
So if you see them anywhere
Won't you lead me there?
Written by: Hoagy Carmichael, Johnny Mercer
