October Song
Amy Winehouse/Musicfire.in Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Gone to find her big blue jay
Starlight before she took flight
I sung a lullaby of bird land every night
Sung for my Ava every night
Ava was the morning, now she's gone
She's reborn like Sarah Vaughan
Birds surround her sweet sound
And Ava flies in paradise
With dread I woke in my bed
To shooting pains up in my head
Lovebird, my beautiful bird
Spoken 'til one day she couldn't be heard
She just stopped singing
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
The song "October Song" by Amy Winehouse, Matt Rowe, and Stefan Skarbek tells the story of a bird named Ava who has flown away, leaving the singer feeling lost and in pain. The imagery of the "big blue jay" and "starlight" before Ava's departure creates a sense of longing and wonder. The singer reminisces about singing a lullaby for Ava every night, emphasizing the important role that Ava played in their life. However, Ava is ultimately reborn in the sanctuary where she has found peace and the birds surround her with their sweet sound. The singer is left with a sense of loss and sadness as they come to terms with Ava's departure and the fact that they can no longer hear her beautiful song.
Line by Line Meaning
Today my bird flew away
My beloved has left my side
Gone to find her big blue jay
She has gone to pursue her dreams and follow her heart's desires
Starlight before she took flight
The night was illuminated by the stars as she departed
I sung a lullaby of bird land every night
I would sing her a sweet song before bed, hoping for her nurturing dreams
Sung for my Ava every night
These songs were always dedicated to my beloved Ava
Ava was the morning, now she's gone
Just as the morning fades into the day, Ava has moved on from my life
She's reborn like Sarah Vaughan
Ava has found a new beginning, much like the way Sarah Vaughan found success in her career
In the sanctuary she has found
She has found a place of peace and solace
Birds surround her sweet sound
She is embraced by the nature that surrounds her
And Ava flies in paradise
She is now free and happy, like a bird flying in paradise
With dread I woke in my bed
I felt a deep sense of unease and sorrow as I awoke in my bed
To shooting pains up in my head
Physical pain manifested as a result of my heartache
Lovebird, my beautiful bird
My beloved was like a beautiful bird, embodying a pure and innocent love
Spoken 'til one day she couldn't be heard
Our conversations and exchanges faded until one day, they ceased entirely
She just stopped singing
My beloved, like a bird who loses its song, could no longer communicate with me
