Sophisticated Lady

They say into your early life romance came

And in this heart of yours burnt 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



Is that all you really want? No, sophisticated lady

I know you miss the love you had long ago

And when nobody is nigh you cry
