I used to visit all the very gay places,
|
Those come with many places,
|
Where one may relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life
|
To get the feel of life
|
From jazz and cocktails
|
The girls I knew had sad and solid gray faces,
|
With distant gateways
|
That used to be there you could see where they can
|
watch the way.
|
But too many through the day,
|
Twelve o'clock cocktails
|
Then you came along with your silent soul to take me
|
to madness,
|
I thought for a while that your pointless smile was
|
changed with the sadness of a great love for me.
|
Oh 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 trifle of hearts could only be awful
|
A week in Paris will ease the bite of it,
|
All I carry it to smile inspite of it,
|
I'll forget you I will get you a still burning inside my brain.
|
Romance is much stifling those who strive
|
I'll live a lush life in some small town and there
|
I'll be while I rot with the rest, of those whose lives
|
are lonely too.
