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]
Oh, 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
And in your lonely flight
Haven't you heard the music in the night?
Wonderful music
Faint as a will-o'-the-wisp
Crazy as a loon
Sad as a gypsy serenading the moon
[Verse 3]
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, oh
[Verse 4]
And in your lonely flight
Haven't you heard the music in the night?
Wonderful music
Faint as a will-o'-the-wisp
Crazy as a loon
Sad as a gypsy serenading the moon
[Verse 5]
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
Oh, Skylark
