------------------------------------------ Oh, lullaby of birdland that's what I Always hear, when you sigh, Never in my wordland could there be ways to reveal In a phrase how I feel.
Have you ever heard two turtle doves Bill and coo when they love? That's the kind of magic music we get from our lips When we kiss
And there's a weepy old willow He really knows how to cry That's how I'd cry in my pillow If you could tell me and just say goodbye
Lullaby of birdland whisper low Kiss me sweet, and we'll go Flying high in birdland, high in the sky up above All because we're in love
Lullaby, Lullaby
Have you ever heard two turtle doves Bill and coo when they love? That's the kind of magic music we make get from our lips When we kiss
And there's a weepy old willow He really knows how to cry That's how I'd cry in my pillow If you could tell me and just say goodbye
Lullaby of birdland whisper low Kiss me sweet, and we'll go Flying high in birdland, high in the sky up above All because we're in love
