[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
