Donna Summer - Lush Life Lyrics
I used to visit the very gay placesThose come what may placesWhere one relaxes on the axisOf the wheel of lifeTo get the feel of lifeFrom jazz and *****tailsAll the men I knew had sad andSullen gray facesWith distingue tracesThat used to be thereYou could see whereTheyd been washed awayBy too many through the dayTwelve oclock talesThen you came along with yourSiren songTo tempt me to madnessI knew all the whileThat your poignant smileWas tinged with the sadness of aGreat love for meOh, yes I was wrongAgain I was wrongNow life is lonely againAnd only last year everythingSeemed so sureNow life is awful againA troughful of hearts would onlyBe a boreA week in paris will ease the biteOf itBut all I really careIs to smile in spite of itIll forget youI will and yet you are stillBurning inside my brainRomance is mush, stifling thoseWho striveIll live a lush life in someSmall diveAnd there Ill beWhile I rot with the restOf those whose lives areLonely too
