Sophisticated Lady Lyrics
Duke Ellington / Mitchell Parish / Irving Mills They say into your early life romance cameAnd this heart of yours burned a flameA flame that flickered one day and died awayThen, with disilution deep in your eyesYou learned that fools in love soon grow wiseThe years have changed you, somehowI see you nowSmoking, drinking, never thinking of tomorrow, nonchalantDiamonds shining, dancing, dining with some man in a restaurantIs that all you really want?No, sophisticated lady,I know, you miss the love you lost long agoAnd when nobody is nigh you cry
Billie Holiday Sophisticated Lady
