| [00:09.58] |
I used to visit all the very gay places |
| [00:16.44] |
Those come what may places |
| [00:20.29] |
Where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life |
| [00:27.34] |
To get the feel of life from jazz and cocktails |
| [00:39.25] |
The girls I knew had sad and sullen gray faces |
| [00:44.78] |
With distingue traces that used to be there |
| [00:50.43] |
You could see where they'd been washed away |
| [00:55.09] |
By too many through the day, twelve o'clock tales |
| [01:07.38] |
Then you came along with your siren song |
| [01:12.90] |
To tempt me to madness |
| [01:17.91] |
I thought for awhile that your poignant smile |
| [01:23.15] |
Was tinged with the sadness of a great love for me |
| [01:36.77] |
Ah yes, I was wrong |
| [01:46.46] |
Again, I was wrong |
| [01:58.81] |
Life is lonely again and only last year |
| [02:09.03] |
Everything seemed so sure |
| [02:15.80] |
Now life is awful again |
| [02:22.41] |
A trough full of hearts could only be a bore |
| [02:34.43] |
A week in Paris could ease the bite of it |
| [02:43.65] |
All I care is to smile in spite of it |
| [02:54.19] |
I'll forget you, I will while yet you are still |
| [03:03.56] |
Burning inside my brain romance is mush |
| [03:14.78] |
Stifling those who strive |
| [03:20.03] |
I'll live a lush life in some small dive |
| [03:33.77] |
And there I'll be |
| [03:40.28] |
While I rot with the rest of those |
| [03:49.80] |
Whose lives are lonely too |
