Performer: Cambridge Singers THE LARK IN THE CLEAR AIR- Traditional Songs: I know where I am going. She moved through the fair. The lark in the clear air. Down by the sally gardens. Dashing away with the smoothing iron. The spring time of the year. The sprig of thyme. The bold grenadier. The British Grenadiers. The dark eyed sailor. The keel row. The girl I left behind me. Just as the tide was flowing. The cockoo. O waly, waly. She's like the swallow. The lover's ghost. Willow song. The willow tree. Wassail song. The miller of Dee. O can ye sew cushions. Afton water.
