Glenn Miller Skylark Lyrics

Skylark Lyrics

Skylark
Glenn Miller
Words by Johnny Mercer, music by Hoagy
Carmichael

As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on January 8th 1942
with Ray Eberle.

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...
