《Lush Life》歌词

[00:00:00] Lush Life - Oscar Peterson (奥斯卡·彼得森)

[00:00:13] I used to visit all the very gay places

[00:00:17] Those come what may places

[00:00:19] Where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life

[00:00:24] To get the feel of life from jazz and cocktails

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

[00:00:41] With distingue traces that used to be there

[00:00:45] You could see where they'd been washed away

[00:00:49] By too many through the day twelve o'clock tales

[00:00:57] Then you came along with your siren song

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

[00:01:06] I thought for awhile that your poignant smile

[00:01:12] Was tinged with the sadness of a great love for me

[00:01:22] Ah yes I was wrong

[00:01:30] Again I was wrong

[00:01:40] Life is lonely again and only last year

[00:01:50] Everything seemed so sure

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

[00:02:02] A trough full of hearts could only be a bore

[00:02:11] A week in Paris could ease the bite of it

[00:02:20] All I care is to smile in spite of it

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

[00:02:40] Burning inside my side my brain romance is mush

[00:02:51] Stifling those who strive

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

[00:03:07] And there I'll be

[00:03:11] While I rot with the rest of those

[00:03:19] Whose lives are lonely too
