Lush Life Barry Manilow

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 distingué 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 song
To tempt me to madness
I thought for awhile
That your poignant smilе

Was tinged with the sadness
Of a grеat love for me
Ah, yes, I was wrong
Again, I was wrong
