《Lush Life》歌词

[00:00:00] Lush Life - Bettye Lavette

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

[00:00:07] Those come what may places

[00:00:12] Where one relaxes on the axis

[00:00:14] Of the wheel of life

[00:00:19] To get the feel of life

[00:00:24] From jazz to cocktails

[00:00:32] The girls I knew had sad

[00:00:34] And sullen gray faces

[00:00:38] With distingue traces

[00:00:42] That used to be there

[00:00:43] You could see where

[00:00:44] They'd been washed away

[00:00:49] By too many through the day

[00:00:55] Twelve o'clock tales

[00:01:01] Then you came along

[00:01:03] With your siren song

[00:01:07] To tempt me to madness

[00:01:11] I thought for awhile

[00:01:14] That your poignant smile

[00:01:18] Was tinged with the sadness

[00:01:22] Of a great love for me

[00:01:30] Ah yes I was wrong

[00:01:38] Again I was wrong

[00:01:52] Life is lonely again

[00:01:58] And only last year

[00:02:04] Everything seemed so sure

[00:02:10] Now life is awful again

[00:02:17] A trough full of hearts

[00:02:22] Could only be a bore

[00:02:30] A week in Paris

[00:02:33] Could ease the bite of it

[00:02:39] All I care is just to smile in spite of it

[00:02:49] I'll forget you I will

[00:02:55] While yet you are still

[00:03:00] Burning inside my brain

[00:03:07] Romance is mush

[00:03:12] Stifling those who strive

[00:03:17] I'll live me a lush life

[00:03:21] Rocking in this small dive

[00:03:27] And there I'll be

[00:03:31] While I rot with the rest of those

[00:03:36] Whose lives are lonely too
