Sophisticated Lady

Tradução

Rosemary Clooney

Compositor: 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 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

Tell me, is that 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, diamonds shining, dancing, dining
With some man in a restaurant

Is that all you really want?
No, sophisticated lady
I know, you miss the love you lost long ago
And when nobody is nigh, you cry
