Sophisticated Lady lyrics by Duke Ellington

Title : SOPHISTICATED LADY

Artist : DUKE ELLINGTON

Reference Number : 0585


*****


They say into your early life romance came
And in this heart of yours burned a flame
A flame that flickered one day and died away

Then with disillusion deep in your eyes
You learned that fools in love soon grow wise
The years have changed you, somehow;

I see you now
Smoking, drinking, never thinking of tomorrow
Nonchalant, diamonds shining, dancing, dining
With some man in a restaurant
Is that all you really want?

No, sophisicated lady, I know,
You miss the love you lost long ago,
And when nobody is nigh you cry
