tony burrows music band - THE LONELY SKYLARK

No bees are buzzing
Mosquitos humming
As the sun sets in the West
The water quivers as the river moves slowly on
No fish are swimming
No birds are singing
Only silence can be heard
The lonely skylark has sung his last song

No seagulls soaring
Dolphins snoring
In the stillness of the bay
The only sound is the waves as they roll along
No puffins gliding
No gannets diving
To the depths of the silky sea
The lonely skylark has sung his last song

The skies are empty now
For nature has run its course
No signs of wild life that we once knew
No use in lying
It's all dying
Too late to heal the wounds
The lonely skylark has sung his last song

No doves are cooing
Magpies wooing
The dawn chorus has long since gone
The memory of those sweet sounds
Is still so very strong
No kestrels hovering
Blue tits squabbling
The tears swell in my eyes
The lonely skylark has sung his last song
