Sophisticated Lady lyrics

by

Duke Ellington


They say into your early life romance came
And in this heart of yours burned a flame
A flame that flickered one day, then died away
Now 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
Dancing, dining, diamonds shining
With some man in a restaurant
Is it all you really want?
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
Dancing, dining, diamonds shining
With some man in a restaurant
Is it all you really want?
No, sophisticated lady
I know, you miss the love you lost long ago
And whеn nobody is nigh
You sigh
