[00:00.00]Lush Life (Original Mix) - Ella Fitzgerald
[00:14.21]I used to visit all the very gay places
[00:18.10]Those come what may places
[00:20.90]Where one relaxes on
[00:22.51]The axis of the wheel of life
[00:25.40]To get the feel of life from
[00:28.87]Jazz and cocktails
[00:36.90]The girls I knew had sad and
[00:39.15]Sullen gray faces
[00:41.72]With distingue traces that
[00:45.36]Used to be there
[00:46.60]You could see where they'd
[00:47.90]Been washed away
[00:49.95]By too many through the day
[00:53.20]Twelve o'clock tales
[00:58.11]Then you came along with
[01:00.42]Your siren song
[01:02.32]To tempt me to madness
[01:07.51]I thought for awhile that your
[01:10.26]Poignant smile
[01:12.69]Was tinged with the sadness
[01:15.88]Of a great love for me
[01:23.16]Ah yes I was wrong
[01:30.99]Again I was wrong
[01:41.17]Life is lonely again and only last year
[01:50.79]Everything seemed so sure
[01:56.86]Now life is awful again
[02:03.35]A trough full of hearts
[02:06.81]Could only be a bore
[02:12.43]A week in Paris could
[02:18.11]Ease the bite of it
[02:21.00]All I care is to smile in spite of it
[02:30.90]I'll forget you I will while
[02:37.64]Yet you are still
[02:41.22]Burning inside my
[02:44.69]Inside my brain
[02:48.92]Romance is mush
[02:52.90]Stifling those who strive
[02:57.71]I'll live a lush life in some small dive
[03:08.85]And there I'll be
[03:12.54]While I rot with the rest of those
[03:20.06]Whose lives are lonely too
