《Lush Life》歌词

[00:00:00] Lush Life - Ella Fitzgerald (埃拉·菲茨杰拉德)

[00:00:00] Written by：Strayhorn/Duke Ellington/Billy Strayhorn

[00:00:14] I used to visit all the very gay places

[00:00:18] Those come what may places

[00:00:20] Where one relaxes on

[00:00:22] The axis of the wheel of life

[00:00:25] To get the feel of life from

[00:00:28] Jazz and cocktails

[00:00:36] The girls I knew had sad and

[00:00:39] Sullen gray faces

[00:00:41] With distingue traces that

[00:00:45] Used to be there

[00:00:46] You could see where they'd

[00:00:47] Been washed away

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

[00:00:53] Twelve o'clock tales

[00:00:58] Then you came along with

[00:01:00] Your siren song

[00:01:02] To tempt me to madness

[00:01:07] I thought for awhile that your

[00:01:10] Poignant smile

[00:01:12] Was tinged with the sadness

[00:01:15] Of a great love for me

[00:01:23] Ah yes I was wrong

[00:01:30] Again I was wrong

[00:01:41] Life is lonely again and only last year

[00:01:50] Everything seemed so sure

[00:01:56] Now life is awful again

[00:02:03] A trough full of hearts

[00:02:06] Could only be a bore

[00:02:12] A week in Paris could

[00:02:18] Ease the bite of it

[00:02:21] All I care is to smile in spite of it

[00:02:30] I'll forget you I will while

[00:02:37] Yet you are still

[00:02:41] Burning inside my

[00:02:44] Inside my brain

[00:02:48] Romance is mush

[00:02:52] Stifling those who strive

[00:02:57] I'll live a lush life in some small dive

[00:03:08] And there I'll be

[00:03:12] While I rot with the rest of those

[00:03:20] Whose lives are lonely too
