Lyrics for Skylark

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? 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 Oh, 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 Skylark Oh, I don't know if you can find these things Oh, but my heart, my heart is riding on your wings So if you see them anywhere Won't you lead me there?
