Lush Life歌词

[00:09.58]I used to visit all the very gay places
[00:16.44]Those come what may places
[00:20.29]Where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life
[00:27.34]To get the feel of life from jazz and cocktails
[00:39.25]The girls I knew had sad and sullen gray faces
[00:44.78]With distingue traces that used to be there
[00:50.43]You could see where they'd been washed away
[00:55.09]By too many through the day, twelve o'clock tales
[01:07.38]Then you came along with your siren song
[01:12.90]To tempt me to madness
[01:17.91]I thought for awhile that your poignant smile
[01:23.15]Was tinged with the sadness of a great love for me
[01:36.77]Ah yes, I was wrong
[01:46.46]Again, I was wrong
[01:58.81]Life is lonely again and only last year
[02:09.03]Everything seemed so sure
[02:15.80]Now life is awful again
[02:22.41]A trough full of hearts could only be a bore
[02:34.43]A week in Paris could ease the bite of it
[02:43.65]All I care is to smile in spite of it
[02:54.19]I'll forget you, I will while yet you are still
[03:03.56]Burning inside my brain romance is mush
[03:14.78]Stifling those who strive
[03:20.03]I'll live a lush life in some small dive
[03:33.77]And there I'll be
[03:40.28]While I rot with the rest of those
[03:49.80]Whose lives are lonely too
