Lullaby Of Birdland
Reeves Dianne Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Always hear when you sigh
Never in my wordland
Could there be ways to reveal
In a phrase how I feel
Have you ever heard two turtle doves
Bill and coo when they love?
Music we make with our lips when we kiss
And there's a weepy old willow
He really knows how to cry
That's how I'd cry in my pillow
If you should tell me farewell and goodbye
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
The lyrics of Reeves Dianne's song Lullaby of Birdland are a beautiful love song. The song expresses the indescribable feeling of being in love and how the simplest things, like a lullaby, can bring so much joy. The opening line, "Lullaby of Birdland, that's what I always hear when you sigh," is powerful because it captures the essence of how love can transform everyday sounds into something magical. The singer then goes on to express her feelings by saying that no words could ever explain how she feels.
The second stanza of the song describes the beauty of love and compares it to the cooing of two turtle doves. The singer says that the kind of music they make with their lips when they kiss is magical. This is followed by a reference to a weeping willow, which is usually associated with sadness. However, the singer uses this image to show the depth of her emotions and how she would feel if she ever lost her love.
The chorus of the song is a plea to her lover to whisper sweet nothings and take her to Birdland, a place where they could fly high and experience the joys of being in love. The song ends on a positive note, expressing the happiness that comes with being in love.
