October Song

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
