Lullaby of Birdland lyrics
Lullaby of Birdland chords is composed of three verses and a chorus.
The lyrics are simple:
Verse 1
Lullaby by birdland that’s what I
Always hear, when you sigh,
Never in my wordland
Could there be words to reveal
In a phrase how I feel
Verse 2
Have you ever heard two turtle doves
Bill and coo, when they love?
That’s the kind of magic
Music we made with our lips
When we kiss
Chorus
And there’s a weepy old willow
He really knows how to cry
That’s how I’d cry in my pillow
If you should tell me farewell and goodbye
Verse 3
Lullaby by 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
