SPARROW SINGS, THE
(Mark Barkan / Mann Curtis / Larry Martin / Morton Wax)
as recorded by
Vic Damone & The Jack Halloran Singers
with orchestra conducted by David Carroll
1954
The sparrow sings,
He sings, "Where is my lover?"
And spreads his wings where rainbows kiss the sun.
The sparrow clings
To hopes that he'll discover
A feathered heart to fly with him as one!
Fly, sparrow fly,
Glide into the blue.
I, sparrow I
Search, even as you!
Till heaven brings
My long awaited lover,
My heart has wings,
And like the sparrow, sings!
Fly, sparrow fly,
Glide into the blue.
I, sparrow I
Search, even as you!
Till heaven brings
My long awaited lover,
My heart has wings,
And like the sparrow, sings!
