oscar peterson - lush life lyrics
lush lifei used to visit all the very gay places
those come-what-may places
where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life
to get the feel of life
from jazz and c-cktails
the girls i knew had sad and sullen gray faces
with distingue traces
that used to be there
you could see where they`d been washed away
by too many through the day
twelve o`clock tales
then you came along with your siren song
to tempt me to madness
i thought for awhile that your poignant smile
was tinged with the sadness
of a great love for me
ah yes, i was wrong
again, i was wrong
life is lonely again
and only last year
everything seemed so sure
now life is awful again
a trough full of hearts could only be a bore
a week in paris could ease the bite of it
all i care is to smile in spite of it
i`ll forget you, i will
while yet you are still
burning inside my brain
romance is mush
stifling those who strive
so i`ll live a lush life in some small dive
and there i`ll be, while i rot with the rest
of those whose lives are lonely too
