Sophisticated Lady
James Darren

(Duke Ellington, Irving Mills, Mitchell Parish)


They say into your early life romance came 
And in this heart of yours burned a flame.
A flame that flickered one day and died away.

Then with disillusion 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.
