Lush Life

1.Lush Life (Nat King Cole) sözleri

Nat King Cole tarafından albümünde söylenen Lush Life adlı şarkının sözleri.

(billy strayhorn)

I used to visit all the very gay places
Those come what may places
Where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life
To get the feel of life...
From jazz and cocktails.

The girls I knew had sad and sullen gray faces
With distant gay traces
That used to be there you could see where they’d been washed away
By too many through the day...
Twelve o’clock tales.

Then you came along with your siren of song
To tempt me to madness!
I thought for a while that your poignant smile was tinged with the sadness
Of a great love for me.

Ah yes! I was wrong...
Again,
I was wrong.

Life is lonely again,
And only last year everything seemed so sure.
Now life is awful again,
A troughful of hearts could only be a bore.
A week in paris will ease the bite of it,
All I care is to smile in spite of it.

I’ll forget you, I will
While yet you are still burning inside my brain.
Romance is mush,
Stifling those who strive.
I’ll live a lush life in some small dive...
And there I’ll be, while I rot
With the rest of those whose lives are lonely, too..

2.Lush Life (Sugababes) sözleri

Sugababes tarafından albümünde söylenen Lush Life adlı şarkının sözleri.

[Chorus]
Lush life
Takes away the time
Lush life
Takes away the time
Take one step at a time
Boy I'm still in my prime
I want the lush life

A little base is what I want
Need a finer place to do my thang
I want no boys holding me back
Coz once I get there, there's no turning back
So don't let this happen to me
Don't need no one to choose me
(Don't need to one amusing me)

[Chorus]
Lush life
Takes away the time
Lush life
Takes away the time
Take one step at a time
Boy I'm still in my prime
I want the lush life

I know exactly what I want
Supply the beat and we'll do our thing
You may say it's all in my mind
To me it's the lush life
Although it may take some time
So don't let this happen to me
Don't need no one to choose me
(Don't need to one amusing me)

[Chorus]
Lush life
Takes away the time
Lush life
Takes away the time
Take one step at a time
Boy I'm still in my prime
I want the lush life

Can't wait until the morning
Gotta see what I get for me
Gotta come onto the summer
Look at me coz I can work it

[Chorus]
Lush life
Takes away the time
Lush life
Takes away the time
Take one step at a time
Boy I'm still in my prime
I want the lush life
