the lark in the clear air - loreena mckennitt lyrics

dear thoughts are in my mind
and my soul soars enchanted
as i hear the sweet lark sing
in the clear air of the day.
for a tender beaming smile
to my hope has been granted
and tomorrow she shall hear
all my fond heart would say.

i shall tell her all my love
and my soul’s adoration
and i think she will hear me
and will not say nay.
it is this that gives my soul
all it’s joyous elation
as i hear the sweet lark sing
in the clear air of the day.
