Sophisticated Lady - Billie Holiday

Lyrics by：Mitchell Parish/Duke Ellington/Irving Mills

They say into your early life romance came

And this heart of yours burned a flame

A flame that flickered one day and died away

Then with disilution 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

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

Sophisticated lady

You cry
