Mariah Carey
Lullaby of Birdland (Live) [2014]
[Intro]
'Cause it's a chanteuse, dahling, I'm a chanteuse
I'm on the stage
Gotta feel it
I'm on the piano, you know how good this feels?
When I was little, I would be in lingerie on the piano
At like, 13
Appropriate? Not really
But it's me, and I can't help it

[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 wе kiss

[Chorus]
And there's a weepy old willow
He rеally knows how to cry
That's how I'd cry in my pillow
If you should say farewell and goodbye
[Verse 3]
Ooh, lullaby of birdland whisper low
Kiss me sweet, then we'll go
Flyin' high in birdland
High in the sky up above
All because we're in love

[Chorus]
And there's a weepy old willow
And he really knows how to cry
That's how I'd cry in my pillow
If you should say
Fare thee well and goodbye

[Verse 3]
Lullaby of birdland whisper low
Kiss me sweet then we'll go
Flyin' high in birdland
High in the sky up above
All because we're in love

[Outro]
High in the sky up above
All because we're in love
In love
I'm so in love with you, boy
All because we're in love
And all because
I can't live without you
I won't live without you
I'm making up something
But that don't mean nothin' 'cause it's
In love
[Spoken Outro]
He said let me grab that
Before it becomes a tangent
