Sophisticated Lady

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?

Oh, no

Sophisticated lady, I know

You miss the love you lost long ago

And when nobody is nigh, you cry

Smoking, drinking

Never thinking of tomorrow

Nonchalant

Diamonds shining

Dancing, dining

With some man in a restaurant

Is that all you really want?

Oh, no

Sophisticated lady, I know

You miss the love you lost long ago

And when nobody is nigh

When nobody is nigh

Nobody is nigh, you cry
