lirik lagu rickie lee jones - lush life
(written by billy strah-rn)
i used to visit all the very gay places
those come-what-may places
i used to visit all the very gay places
where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life
to get the feel of life
from jazz and c-cktails.
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 a while 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 will ease the bite of it
all i care is to smile in spite of it
i’ll forget you, i will
while 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.
