[00:00:00] Lush Life (Remastered 2016) (Live) - billy eckstine

[00:00:02] Written by：Rr/Billy Strayhorn

[00:00:04] I used to visit all the very gay places

[00:00:08] Those come what may places

[00:00:11] Where one relaxes on the

[00:00:13] Axis of the wheel of life

[00:00:17] To get the feel of life

[00:00:20] From jazz and cocktails

[00:00:26] The girls I knew had sad

[00:00:28] And sullen gray faces

[00:00:31] With distant gay traces

[00:00:34] That used to be there you could see

[00:00:36] Where they'd been washed away

[00:00:39] By too many through the day

[00:00:43] Twelve o'clock tales

[00:00:51] Then you came along

[00:00:55] With your siren song

[00:00:58] To tempt me to madness

[00:01:05] I thought for a while that

[00:01:10] Your poignant smile

[00:01:13] Was tinged with the sadness

[00:01:18] Of a great love for me

[00:01:28] Ah yes I was wrong

[00:01:39] Again I was wrong

[00:01:54] Life is lonely again

[00:02:00] And only last year everything

[00:02:05] Seemed so sure

[00:02:11] Now life is awful again

[00:02:18] A troughful of hearts

[00:02:22] Could never be a bore

[00:02:31] A week in Paris will

[00:02:37] Ease the bite of it

[00:02:40] All I care is to smile

[00:02:46] In spite of it

[00:02:50] I'll forget you I will

[00:02:55] While yet you are still

[00:02:59] Burning inside my brain

[00:03:08] Romance is mush

[00:03:11] Stifling those who strive

[00:03:15] I'll live a lush life

[00:03:19] In some small dive

[00:03:26] And there I'll be while I rot

[00:03:33] With the rest of those

[00:03:41] Whose lives are lonely too
