《Lush Life》歌词

[00:00:00] Lush Life - billy eckstine

[00:00:10] I used to visit all these very gay places

[00:00:14] Those come what may places

[00:00:17] Where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life

[00:00:23] To get a feel of life

[00:00:26] From jazz and cocktails

[00:00:32] The girls i knew had sad and sullen grey faces

[00:00:36] With distant gay traces

[00:00:39] That used to be there

[00:00:40] You could see where they've been washed away

[00:00:45] By too many through the day

[00:00:49] Twelve o'clock tales

[00:00:56] Then you came along

[00:01:01] With a siren song

[00:01:04] It tempts me to madness

[00:01:11] I thought for a while that your poignant smile

[00:01:19] Was tinged with the sadness

[00:01:24] Of a great love for me

[00:01:34] Yes i was wrong

[00:01:45] Again i was wrong

[00:02:00] Life is lonely again

[00:02:06] And only last year everything seemed so sure

[00:02:17] Now life is awful again

[00:02:24] A trough full of hearts could never be a bore

[00:02:37] A week to paris

[00:02:41] At least a bite of it

[00:02:46] All i care is to smile in spite of it

[00:02:56] I'll forget you i will

[00:03:01] And yet you are still

[00:03:04] Burning inside my brain

[00:03:14] Romance is mush

[00:03:17] Stifling those who strive

[00:03:21] Well i'll live a lush life in some small dive

[00:03:32] And then i'll be

[00:03:36] Well i rock with the rest

[00:03:43] All those whose lives are lonely too
