[00:00.550] I used to visit all the very gay places
[00:16.967] Those come what may places
[00:19.519] Where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life
[00:23.518] To get the feel of life
[00:26.267] From jazz and cocktails
[00:30.142] The girls I knew had sad and sullen gray faces
[00:39.334] With distingué traces
[00:41.512] That used to be there, you could see where they'd been washed away
[00:45.798] By too many through the day: Twelve o'clock tales
[00:52.198] Then you came along with your siren of song
[01:00.822] To tempt me to madness
[01:04.766] I thought for a while that your poignant smile
[01:09.054] Was tinged with the sadness of a great love for me
[01:19.414] Ah yes, I was wrong
[01:26.438] Again
[01:29.688] I was wrong
[01:33.793] Life is lonely again
[01:46.061] And only last year
[01:49.357] Everything seemed so sure
[01:54.806] Now life is awful again
[02:01.989] A troughful of hearts
[02:05.455] Could only be a bore
[02:11.527] A week in Paris will ease the bite of it
[02:19.613] All I care is to smile in spite of it
[02:30.076] I'll forget you, I will
[02:36.017] While yet you are still
[02:40.261] Burning inside my brain
[02:46.199] Romance is mush
[02:50.221] Stifling those who strive
[02:55.902] I'll live a lush life
[02:59.613] In some small dive
[03:05.605] And there I'll be
[03:09.733] While I rot
[03:12.852] With the rest of those
[03:20.588] Whose lives are lonely, too
[00:00.550] I used to visit all the very gay places
[00:16.967] Those come what may places
[00:19.519] Where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life
[00:23.518] To get the feel of life
[00:26.267] From jazz and cocktails
[00:30.142] The girls I knew had sad and sullen gray faces
[00:39.334] With distingue traces
[00:41.512] That used to be there, you could see where they' d been washed away
[00:45.798] By too many through the day: Twelve o' clock tales
[00:52.198] Then you came along with your siren of song
