Lush Life Lyrics - Donna Summer - Donna Summer

I used to visit the very gay places 

those come what may places 

where one relaxes on the axis 

of the wheel of life 

to get the feel of life 

from jazz and cocktails 

All the men I knew had sad and 

sullen gray faces 

with distingue traces 

that used to be there 

you could see where 

they'd been washed away 

by too many through the day 

twelve o'clock tales

NEW SONG: Miley Cyrus - 'Slide Away' - LYRICS 

Then you came along with your 

siren song 

to tempt me to madness 

I knew all the while 

that your poignant smile 

was tinged with the sadness of a 

great love for me 

oh, yes I was wrong 

again I was wrong 

Now life is lonely again 

and only last year everything 

seemed so sure 

now life is awful again 

a troughful of hearts would only 

be a bore 

a week in Paris will ease the bite 

of it 

but all I really care 

is to smile in spite of it 

I'll forget you 

I will and yet you are still 

burning inside my brain 

Romance is mush, stifling those 

who strive 

I'll live a lush life in some 

small dive 

and there I'll be 

while I rot with the rest 

of those whose lives are 

lonely too
