Meadowlark - The Bakers Wife (Karaoke)

Not a very good video, but still useable.
Meadowlark from the musical The Baker's Wife (Also a Sarah Brightman song, but this version is in the key from the musical)
Enjoy!

Can you imagine this song as something more intimate? I.e. As a song about the relationship between the aspects of "staring at yourself in the mirror and wanting more from yourself" and the aspect of submitting to "day dreaming/seeing/sensing yourself as already enjoying those achievements"? I equate it to being like the shy actor in constant conflict with an inner push and pull towards the stage, or any artist in the state of "writer's block". Tis a fun game, playing with "perspective spins" with songs. Would love to collaborate with a number of raconteurs on releasing albums of multi-media music videos with a common through-line in that grouping of songs. Anyone interested, hit me up for more details.

When I was a girl l I had a favorite story Of the meadowlark who lived where the rivers wind Her voice could match the angels' in its glory But she was blind, the lark was blind An old king came and took her to his palace Where the walls were burnished bronze and golden braid And he fed her fruit and nuts from an ivory chalice And he prayed: "Sing for me, my meadowlark, Sing for me of the silver morning, Set me free, my meadowlark, And I'll buy you a priceless jewel And cloth of brocade and crewel And I'll love you for life, If you will sing for me." Then one day as the lark sang by the water The god of the sun heard her in his flight And her singing moved him so He came and brought her the gift of sight He gave her sight And she opened her eyes to the shimmer and the splendor Of this beautiful, young god, so proud and strong And he called to the lark in a voice both rough and tender "Come along. Fly with me, my meadowlark, Fly with me on the silver morning, Past the sea where the dolphins bark We will dance on the coral beaches, Make a feast of the plums and peaches Just as far as your vision reaches Fly with me." But the meadowlark said no For the old king loved her so She couldn't bear to wound his pride So the sun god flew away And when the king came down that day He found his meadowlark had died Every time I heard that part I cried And now I stand here starry-eyed and stormy Oh, just when I thought my heart was finally numb A beautiful, young man appears before me, Singing â??come, oh, won't you come?â?? And what can I do if finally for the first time The one I'm burning for returns the glow? If love has come at last it's picked the worst time Still I know I've got to go Fly away, meadowlark Fly away in the silver morning, If I stay, I'll grow to curse the dark So it's off where the days won't bind me I know I leave wounds behind me But I won't let tomorrow find me Back this way Before my past once again can blind me Fly away And we won't wait To say good-bye My beautiful young man And I.
