October Song

[00:20.56] Today, my bird flew away

[00:24.81] Gone to find her big blue jay

[00:29.06] Starlight before she took flight

[00:34.10] I sang her "Lullaby of Birdland" every night

[00:39.68] I sang a lullaby every night

[00:44.20] Sang for my Ava every night

[00:48.98] Ava was the morning, now she's gone

[00:54.03] She's reborn like Sarah Vaughan

[00:58.81] In the sanctuary she has found

[01:03.59] Birds surround her sweet sound

[01:08.37] And Ava flies in paradise

[01:13.15] And Ava flies in paradise

[01:18.73] With dread, I woke in my bed

[01:23.24] To shooting pains up in my head

[01:28.03] Lovebird, my beautiful bird

[01:33.08] Spoke until, one day, she couldn't be heard

[01:38.12] She spoke until, one day, she couldn't be heard

[01:43.96] She just stopped singing

[01:47.84] Ava was the morning, now she's gone

[01:52.63] She's reborn like Sarah Vaughan

[01:57.41] In the sanctuary she has found

[02:02.45] Birds surround her sweet sound

[02:07.12] And Ava flies in paradise

[02:12.17] And Ava flies in paradise

[02:17.22] Ava was the morning, now she's gone

[02:22.00] She's reborn like Sarah Vaughan

[02:27.05] In the sanctuary she has found

[02:31.83] Birds surround her sweet sound

[02:36.61] And Ava flies in paradise

[02:41.66] And Ava flies in paradise

[02:48.03] She flies in Paradise
