Lyrics

I never thought he'd be
So awfully close to me
Until I heard the message that would help to set me free
It made me want to linger
Wanna hang around
For better understanding of a different kind of sound
Back in 42 Bird came to New York and he blew
My how he blew
Come reminisce with me
And think about the Bird
Remember everything he did
And all the things you heard
Now don't it just amaze ya
Getcha down inside
To think of how he had to live
And then the way he died
Life was so unkind
Cause Now would have been his time
Written by: Charlie Parker
