Lovin' at Birdland

We used to dance to Harlem nocturne

We were a rhapsody at midnight

And when we kissed it was a slow burn

And we knew how to make it

Whiskey on the rocks

Whispers in the dark

Listenin' to the blues

Lovin' Birdland and you

You used to say I was your Tony

Just like the guy in West Side Story

You said I was your one and only

And love was there to make it

Whiskey on the rocks

Coltrane in the dark

Swayin' to the blues

Lovin' Birdland and you

Love that took my breath away

A perfect Birdland fantasy

Never dreamed you'd fly away from me

And leave me cryin' at Birdland

Sometimes I drive back to the city

Across the bridge the skyline calls me

And I get caught up in those feelings

And even now I try to shake it

I can't believe it's through

I'm living with the blues

Oh, what else can I do?

I'm still lovin' Birdland and you

I can't believe it's through

Oh, what else can I do?

I'm living with the blues

I'm still lovin' Birdland and you, hmm

Still lovin' Birdland and you
