Today my bird flew away gone to find her big blue jay Starlight before she took flight I sung a lullaby of bird land everynight I sang a lullaby every night Sung for my Ava every night
Ava was the morning, now she's gone She's reborn like Sarah Vaughan In the sanctuary she has found birds surround her sweet sound And Ava flies in paradise And Ava flies in paradise
With dread I woke in my bed Two 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 And she just stopped singing
Ava was the morning, now she's gone She's reborn like Sarah Vaughan In her sanctuary she has found Birds surround her sweet sound And Ava flies in paradise And Ava flies in paradise
