They say into your early life romance came
And in this heart of yours burned a flame
A flame that flickered one day and died away
Then, with disillusion deep in your eyes
You learned that fools in love soon grow wise
The years have changed you somehow
I see you now
Smoking, drinking, never thinking of tomorrow
Nonchalant
Diamonds shining, dancing, dining
With some man in a restaurant
Is that really what you want
No, no sophisticated lady I know
You miss the love you lost long ago
And when nobody is nigh, you cry
You cry, you cry
It's true into your early life romance came
And in this heart of yours burned a flame
A flamе that flickered one day and diеd away
Poor sophisticated lady
