Lyrics

[00:00.917] They say into your early life romance came
[00:13.172] And in this heart of yours burned a flame
[00:21.981] A flame that flickered one day and died away
[00:32.548] Then, with disillusion deep in your eyes
[00:45.260] You learned that fools in love soon grow wise
[00:53.382] The years have changed you, somehow
[00:57.532] I see you now
[01:03.500] Smoking, drinking, never thinking of tomorrow, nonchalant
[01:22.165] Diamonds shining, dancing, dining with some man in a restaurant
[01:34.396] Is that all you really want?
[01:39.212] No, sophisticated lady,
[01:46.171] I know, you miss the love you lost long ago
[01:56.636] And when nobody is nigh you cry
[02:10.103] Smoking, drinking, never thinking of tomorrow, nonchalant
[04:29.373] Diamonds shining, dancing, dining with some man in a restaurant
[04:42.249] Is that all you really want?
[04:46.985] No, sophisticated lady,
[04:53.113] I know, you miss the love you lost long ago
[05:03.673] And when nobody is nigh you cry
