Текст песни[]
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? Oh, no
Sophisticated lady, I know
You miss the love you lost long ago
When nobody is nigh, you cry
Smoking, drinking
Never thinking of tomorrow, nonchalant
Diamonds shining, dancing, dining with some man in a restaurant
Is that all you really want? Oh, no
Sophisticated lady, I know
You miss the love you lost long ago
When nobody is nigh
When nobody is nigh
Nobody is nigh, you cry
