Lullaby by Birdland, that's what IAlways hear when you sighNever in my wordland could there be ways to revealIn a phrase how I feel
Have you ever heard two turtledovesBill and coo when they love?That's the kind of magic music we make with our lipsWhen we kiss
And there's a weepy 'ol willowHe really knows how to cryThat's how I'd cry on my pillowIf you should tell me farewell and goodbye
Lullaby by Birdland whisper lowKiss me sweet, and we'll goFlying high in Birdland, high in the sky up aboveAll because we're in love
And there's a weepy 'ol willowHe really knows how to cryThat's how I'd cry in my pillowIf you should tell me farewell and goodbye
Lullaby by Birdland whisper lowKiss me sweet, and we'll goFlying high in Birdland, high in the sky up aboveAll because we're in love

 There's a place where lovers go

To cry their troubles awayAnd they call it Lonesome TownWhere the broken hearts stay (Lonesome Town)
You can buy a dream or twoTo last you all through the yearsAnd the only price you payIs a heart full of tears (full of tears)
Goin' down to Lonesome TownWhere the broken hearts stayGoin' down to Lonesome TownTo cry my troubles away
In the town of broken dreamsThe streets are filled with regretMaybe down in Lonesome TownI can learn to forget (to forget)
Maybe down in Lonesome TownI can learn to forgetLonesome Town
