One
day you're up
And the next day you're down
And all your dreams
Pass you by
You
sit in your room
With your face in a frown
Waiting for her
Last goodbye
And
all of the wishing wells
And stars in the sky
Won't make her stay any more
And
all of the plans you've made
Will soon wash to sea
Like a lark who can't sing any more
Once
in awhile you remember her laugh
For she could make you feel strong
'Twas then that you thought your love always would last
But now it seems you were wrong
And
all of the wishing wells
And stars in the sky
Won't make her stay anymore
And
all of the plans you've made
Will soon wash to sea
Like a lark who can't sing any more
Golden lark won't you sing any more
Golden
lark
Keeps her heart
Riding on the wind
She's
a mystery
Like a gypsy
Hides her love within
Golden
lark
Keeps her heart
Riding on the wind
She's
a mystery
Like a gypsy
Hides her love within

Interpretation
The Golden Lark is a metaphor for a love that is fleeting, beautiful and wonderful but never lasting.
Larks are songbirds often associated with morning, as they start singing cheerful songs with the sunrise and brighten the day for those who can hear them. They are also associated with femininity. To no longer be able to sing is devastating.
