Sophistocated Lady Lyrics - Singles - Ellington Duke

They say into, our early life romance came, 

and in this heart of your burned a flame, 

A flame that flickered one day and dies away. 

Then, with disillusions 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 lost long ago, 

and when nobody is nigh you cry. 

They say into, our early life romance came, 

and in this heart of your burned a flame, 

A flame that flickered one day and dies away. 

Then, with disillusions 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 lost long ago, 

and when nobody is nigh you cry.
