Billie Holiday - Back In Your Own Backyard Lyrics
Artist: Billie Holiday
- Songwriters: Dave Dreyer, Al Jolson, Billy Rose
The bird with feathers of blue
Is waiting for you
Back in your own backyard
You'll see your castles in Spain
Through your window pane
Back in your own backyard
Oh, you can go to the East
Go to the West
But someday you'll come weary at heart
Back where you started from
You'll find your happiness lies
Right under your eyes
Back in your own backyard
The bird with feathers of blue
Is waiting for you
Back in your own backyard
You'll see your castles in Spain
Through your window pane
Back in your own backyard
Oh, you can go to the East
Go to the West
But someday you'll come weary at heart
Back where you started from
You'll find your happiness lies
Right under your eyes
Back in your own backyard
