Johnny Mercer
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 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, 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...
