On this YouTube video Amy performs October Song live at Baden Baden, Germany in 2004 at the SWR 3 New Pop Festival
October Song is song # 10 on Amy’s Frank album.
These are the October Song lyrics for this performance…
Today my bird flew away
Gone to find her big blue jay
Starlight before she took flight
I sung a lullaby of bird land every night
I sing a lullaby every night
I sing for my Ava every night
Ava was the morning and 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… yeah
And Ava flies in paradise
With dread I woke in my bed
To shooting pains up in my head
Lover bird, my beautiful bird
Spoken ’til one day she couldn’t be heard
She spoken ’til one day… yeah
She just stopped singing
Ava was the morning and now she’s gone
And she’s reborn like Sarah Vaughan
And in the sanctuary she has found
Birds surround her sweet sound
And Ava flies in paradise
And Ava flies in paradise
Ava was the morning and now she’s gone
And she’s reborn like Sarah Vaughan
And in the sanctuary she has found
Birds surround her sweet sound
