Lush Life |
I used to visit all the very gay places |
Those come-what-may places |
Where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life |
To get the feel of life from jazz and cocktails |
The girls I knew had sad and sullen gray faces |
With distant gay traces that used to be there |
You could see where they’d been washed away |
By too many through the day, twelve o’clock tales |
Then you came along with your siren song |
To tempt me to madness |
I thought for a while that your poignant smile |
Was tinged with the sadness of a great love for me |
Ah yes, I was wrong |
Again, I was wrong |
Life is lonely again |
And only last year everything seemed so sure |
Now life is awful again |
A trough full of hearts could only be a bore |
A week in Paris will ease the bite of it |
All I care is to smile in spite of it |
I’ll forget you, I will |
While yet you are still burning inside my brain |
Romance is a must stifling those who strive |
I’ll live a lush life in some small dive |
And there I’ll be, while I rot |
With the rest of those whose lives are lonely too |
Of those whose lives are lonely too |
