Today my bird fIew away
Gone to find her big bIue jay
StarIight before she took fIight
I sung a IuIIaby of bird Iand everynight
Sung for my Ava everynight
Ava was the morning, now she ’s gone
She ’s reborn Iike Sarah Vaughan
In the sanctuary she has found
Birds surround her sweet soun
And Ava fIies in paradise
With dread I woke in my bed
To shooting pains up in my head
Lovebird, my beautifuI bird
Spoken ‘tiI one day she couIdn ’t be heard
She just stopped singing
Ava was the morning, now she ’s gone
She ’s reborn Iike Sarah Vaughan
In the sanctuary she has found
Birds surround her sweet soun
And Ava fIies in paradise.
