The Sky Above the Roof

So I recently started taking classes at Juilliard and it has been excellent. This is a new song I'm working on - it's lovely.

The Sky Above the Roof by Ralph Vaughan Williams

The sky above the roof is calm and sweet;
A tree above the roof
Bends in the heat.

A bell from out the blue
Drowsily rings;
A bird from out the blue
Plaintively sings.
Ah God! A life is here,
Simple and fair,
Murmurs of strife are here
Lost in the air.

Why dost thou weep,
O heart,
Poured out in tears?
What has thou done,
O heart, with thy spent years?
