[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
Have you ever heard two turtle doves
Bill and coo, when they love?
That's the kind of magic music we make
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(I'll) cry in my pillow
If you should tell me farewell and goodbye

[Verse 3]
Lullaby of Birdland, whisper low
Kiss me sweet and we'll go
Flyin' high in Birdland high in the sky
Up above all because we're in love

[Chorus]
Oh, and there's a weepy old willow
He really knows how to cry
That's how I'd(I'll) cry in my pillow
If you should tell me farewell and goodbye

[Verse 3]
Lullaby of Birdland, whisper low
Kiss me sweet and we'll go
Flyin' high in Birdland high in the sky
Up above all because we're in love
