Lush Life - Bettye Lavette [00:00:00]
I used to visit all the very gay places[00:00:00]
Those come what may places[00:00:07]
Where one relaxes on the axis[00:00:12]
Of the wheel of life[00:00:14]
To get the feel of life[00:00:19]
From jazz to cocktails[00:00:24]
The girls I knew had sad[00:00:32]
And sullen gray faces[00:00:34]
With distingue traces[00:00:38]
That used to be there[00:00:42]
You could see where[00:00:43]
They'd been washed away[00:00:44]
By too many through the day[00:00:49]
Twelve o'clock tales[00:00:55]
Then you came along[00:01:01]
With your siren song[00:01:03]
To tempt me to madness[00:01:07]
I thought for awhile[00:01:11]
That your poignant smile[00:01:14]
Was tinged with the sadness[00:01:18]
Of a great love for me[00:01:22]
Ah yes I was wrong[00:01:30]
Again I was wrong[00:01:38]
Life is lonely again[00:01:52]
And only last year[00:01:58]
Everything seemed so sure[00:02:04]
Now life is awful again[00:02:10]
A trough full of hearts[00:02:17]
Could only be a bore[00:02:22]
A week in Paris[00:02:30]
Could ease the bite of it[00:02:33]
All I care is just to smile in spite of it[00:02:39]
I'll forget you I will[00:02:49]
While yet you are still[00:02:55]
Burning inside my brain[00:03:00]
Romance is mush[00:03:07]
Stifling those who strive[00:03:12]
I'll live me a lush life[00:03:17]
Rocking in this small dive[00:03:21]
And there I'll be[00:03:27]
While I rot with the rest of those[00:03:31]
Whose lives are lonely too[00:03:36]
