《Lush Life(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Lush Life (Album Version) - Jack Jones

[00:00:02] Written by：Billy Strayhorn

[00:00:05] I used to visit all the very gay places

[00:00:09] Those come what may places

[00:00:11] Where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life

[00:00:17] To get the feel of life

[00:00:20] From jazz and cocktails

[00:00:26] The girls I knew had sad and sullen gray faces

[00:00:31] With distingue traces

[00:00:33] That used to be there you could see where they'd been washed away

[00:00:39] By too many through the day

[00:00:42] Twelve o'clock tales

[00:00:47] Then you came along with your siren song

[00:00:51] To tempt me to madness

[00:00:55] I thought for a while that your poignant smile was tinged with the sadness

[00:01:04] Of a great love for me

[00:01:10] Ah yes I was wrong

[00:01:17] Again

[00:01:18] I was wrong

[00:01:28] Life is lonely again

[00:01:35] And only last year everything seemed so sure

[00:01:45] Now life is awful again

[00:01:52] A trough-full of hearts could only be a bore

[00:02:02] A week in Paris will ease the bite of it

[00:02:11] All I care is to smile in spite of it

[00:02:19] I'll forget you I will

[00:02:25] While yet you are still burning inside my brain

[00:02:34] Romance is mush

[00:02:38] Stifling those who strive

[00:02:44] I'll live a lush life in some small dive

[00:02:54] And there I'll be while I rot

[00:03:00] With the rest of those whose lives are lonely too
