[Intro]
Today, my bird flew away,
Gone to find her big Blue Jay.
Starlight before she took flight,
I sang a Lullaby Of Birdland everynight.
I sang a lullaby everynight,
Sang for my Ava everynight.
Ava was the morning, now she s gone,
She s re-born like Sarah Vaughan.
In the sanctuary, she has found,
Birds sur-round, her sweet sound.
And Ava flies, in paradise,
And Ava flies, in paradise.
With dread, I woke in my bed,
To shooting pains up in my head.
Lovebird, my beautiful bird,
Spoke until one day,
She couldn t be heard.
She spoke until one day,
She couldn t be heard,
She just stopped singing.
Ava was the morning, now she s gone,
She s re-born like Sarah Vaughan.
In the sanctuary, she has found,
Birds sur-round, her sweet sound.
And Ava flies, in paradise,
And Ava flies, in paradise.
Ava was the morning, now she s gone,
She s re-born like Sarah Vaughan.
In the sanctuary, she has found,
Birds sur-round, her sweet sound.
And Ava flies, in paradise,
And Ava flies, in paradise.
