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 in the night
Wonderful music, faint as the will of 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
[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
Written by: Hoagy Carmichael, Johnny Mercer
