Kate Ceberano & Her Septet - "Lush Life" (Live) (1987)
Transcript
00:00I used to visit all the very gay places, those come what may place it, where one relaxes
00:20on the axis of the winter line, to get the feel of life from jazz and cocktails.
00:38The girls I knew had saddened sort of gray faces with distant gay traces that used to be
00:48where you could see that they'd be lost by, by too many through the day, twelve o'clock tails.
01:02Then you came along with your side of song to take me to madness.
01:12I thought for a while that your final smile must interpret the sadness of a great love for me.
01:26Oh yes, I was wrong. Again I was wrong.
01:40The life is lonely again. And only last year, everything seems so sure.
01:58Now life is awful again. A draw full of hearts could only be uncomfortable.
02:20A week in Paris, a wheel is a violin. All I care is to smile in spite of me. I'll forget you. I will.
02:48When yet you are still burning inside my brain. Romance is much stifling those who strive.
03:12I'll live a lush life in some small dive. And then I'll be where I'm wrapped with the rest of those whose lives are lonely too.
03:40When I meet you.
03:44Done.
03:47I am not alone yet.
