[00:00.570]I used to visit all the very gay places
[00:14.058]Those come what may places
[00:16.282]Where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life
[00:20.150]To get the feel of life
[00:21.996]From jazz and cocktails
[00:25.346]The girls I knew had sad and sullen gray faces
[00:33.986]With distingué traces
[00:36.098]That used to be there, you could see where they'd been washed away
[00:40.641]By too many through the day: Twelve o'clock tales
[00:46.441]Then you came along with your siren of song
[00:55.233]To tempt me to madness
[00:59.402]I thought for a while that your poignant smile
[01:04.010]Was tinged with the sadness of a great love for me
[01:13.777]Ah yes, I was wrong
[01:18.569]Again,I was wrong
[01:27.937]Life is lonely again
[01:37.681]And only last year
[01:40.401]Everything seemed so sure
[01:45.937]Now life is awful again
[01:51.241]A troughful of hearts
[01:54.361]Could only be a bore
[02:00.233]A week in Paris will ease the bite of it
[02:08.029]All I care is to smile in spite of it
[02:17.248]I'll forget you, I will
[02:22.721]While yet you are still
[02:26.242]Burning inside my brain
[02:31.867]Romance is mush
[02:35.256]Stifling those who strive
[02:40.152]I'll live a lush life
[02:43.376]In some small dive
[02:48.096]And there I'll be
[02:52.573]While I rot
[02:54.728]With the rest of those
[03:00.557]Whose lives are lonely, too
