Lush Life Lyrics - Lisa Ekdahl

I used to visit all 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 

The girls 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

Then you came along with your siren song 

To tempt me to madness 

I thought for awhile that your poignant smile 

Was tinged with the sadness 

Of a great love for me 

Ah 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 trough full of hearts could only be a bore 

A week in Paris could ease the bite of it 

All I care is to smile in spite of it 

Photos 

I'll forget you, I will 

While yet you are still 

Burning inside my brain 

Romance is mush 

Stifling those who strive 

So 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
