• As we sat on the hilltop
    Looking down over the dales
    The sky is blue
    But, a few clouds shadowed the vales
    I looked your way
    You were deep in thought
    You look so troubled
    All tense and fraught
    It wasn’t the time
    For us to talk
    But I wished I could read your mind
    And banish all your troubles away
    So you could just enjoy
    This beautiful day
    The grasses swayed,
    To and fro in the gentle breeze
    Way up on high the Skylark warbles
    his earlier reprise.
    I take your hand and give it a squeeze
    I look into your eyes and smile
    Maybe just for a moment
    Just for a little while.
    You’ll take comfort
    Knowing for you I’ll always be there
    and you’ll notice the beautiful day
    That we’ve begun to share
    Still sitting on the hilltop
    Looking down to the dales
    The sky is blue
    The clouds have lifted from the vales
    Like the lines that made you frown
    I look your way
    And you turn to me and say
    My god what a beautiful day
    Look a Skylark
    I smile
