Lullaby Of Birdland

<br>LULLABY OF BIRDLAND<br>Lullaby of Birdland, that`s what I<br>always hear when you sigh.<br>Never in my wordland<br>could there be ways to reveal<br>in a phrase how I feel.<br>Have you ever heard two turtle doves<br>bill and coo when they love?<br>That`s the kind of magic<br>music we make with our lips<br>when we kiss.<br> And there`s a weepy old willow,<br> he really knows how to cry.<br> That`s how I`d cry in my pillow<br> if you should tell me farewell and goodbye.<br>Lullaby of Birdland whisper low,<br>kiss me sweet and we`ll go<br>flyin` high in Birdland,<br>high in the sky up above<br>all because we`re in love.<br> - George Shearing
