Lush Life (Remastered 2016) (Live) - billy eckstine[00:00:00]
Written by:Rr/Billy Strayhorn[00:00:02]
I used to visit all the very gay places[00:00:04]
Those come what may places[00:00:08]
Where one relaxes on the[00:00:11]
Axis of the wheel of life[00:00:13]
To get the feel of life[00:00:17]
From jazz and cocktails[00:00:20]
The girls I knew had sad[00:00:26]
And sullen gray faces[00:00:28]
With distant gay traces[00:00:31]
That used to be there you could see[00:00:34]
Where they'd been washed away[00:00:36]
By too many through the day[00:00:39]
Twelve o'clock tales[00:00:43]
Then you came along[00:00:51]
With your siren song[00:00:55]
To tempt me to madness[00:00:58]
I thought for a while that[00:01:05]
Your poignant smile[00:01:10]
Was tinged with the sadness[00:01:13]
Of a great love for me[00:01:18]
Ah yes I was wrong[00:01:28]
Again I was wrong[00:01:39]
Life is lonely again[00:01:54]
And only last year everything[00:02:00]
Seemed so sure[00:02:05]
Now life is awful again[00:02:11]
A troughful of hearts[00:02:18]
Could never be a bore[00:02:22]
A week in Paris will[00:02:31]
Ease the bite of it[00:02:37]
All I care is to smile[00:02:40]
In spite of it[00:02:46]
I'll forget you I will[00:02:50]
While yet you are still[00:02:55]
Burning inside my brain[00:02:59]
Romance is mush[00:03:08]
Stifling those who strive[00:03:11]
I'll live a lush life[00:03:15]
In some small dive[00:03:19]
And there I'll be while I rot[00:03:26]
With the rest of those[00:03:33]
Whose lives are lonely too[00:03:41]
