《A Lady Of A Certain Age》歌词

[00:00:00] A Lady Of A Certain Age - The Divine Comedy
[00:00:02] Written by:Neil Hannon
[00:00:23] Back in the day you had been part of the smart set
[00:00:29] You'd holidayed with kings dined out with starlets
[00:00:34] From London to New York Cap Ferrat to Capri
[00:00:39] In perfume by Chanel and clothes by Givenchy
[00:00:44] You sipped camparis with David and Peter
[00:00:50] At noel's parties by Lake Geneva
[00:00:56] Scaling the dizzy heights of high society
[00:01:01] Armed only with a cheque book and a family tree
[00:01:06] You chased the sun around the Cote d'Azur
[00:01:12] Until the light of youth became obscured
[00:01:18] And left you on your own and in the shade
[00:01:23] An English lady of a certain age
[00:01:29] And if a nice young man would buy you a drink
[00:01:34] You'd say with a conspiratorial wink
[00:01:40] You wouldn't think that I was seventy
[00:01:45] He'd say no you couldn't be
[00:01:53] You had to marry someone very very rich
[00:01:58] So that you might be kept in the style to which
[00:02:04] You had all of your life been accustomed to
[00:02:10] But that the socialists had taxed away from you
[00:02:14] You gave him children a girl and a boy
[00:02:20] To keep your sanity a nanny was employed
[00:02:26] And when the time came they were sent away
[00:02:31] Well that was simply what you did in those days
[00:02:36] You chased the sun around the cote d'Azur
[00:02:42] Until the light of youth became obscured
[00:02:48] And left you on your own and in the shade
[00:02:53] An English lady of a certain age
[00:02:59] And if a nice young man would buy you a drink
[00:03:04] You'd say with a conspiratorial wink
[00:03:09] You wouldn't think that I was sixty three
[00:03:15] He'd say no you couldn't be
[00:03:24] Your son's in stocks and bonds and lives back in surrey
[00:03:29] Flies down once in a while and leaves in a hurry
[00:03:35] Your daughter never finished her finishing school
[00:03:40] Married a strange young man of whom you don't approve
[00:03:45] Your husband's hollow heart gave out one Christmas day
[00:03:51] He left the villa to his mistress in Marseilles
[00:03:57] And so you come here to escape your little flat
[00:04:02] Hoping someone will fill your glass and let you chat about how
[00:04:07] You chased the sun around the cote d'Azur
[00:04:13] Until the light of youth became obscured
[00:04:18] And left you all alone and in the shade
[00:04:24] An English lady of a certain age
[00:04:29] And if a nice young man would buy you a drink
[00:04:35] You'd say with a conspiratorial wink
[00:04:40] You wouldn't think that I was fifty three
[00:04:46] He'd say no you couldn't be
