Sophisticated Lady Songtext

von Mills Irving

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.
You were sweet and lovely, simple and shy
But then as time went hurrying by
The years have changed you somehow, I see you now.

Laughing, daring, never caring that you hurt me like you do.
Bright eyes shining, never pining for a love that is fond and true
Tho' such love was meant for you.

Poor sophisticated lady, I know
You miss the love you lost long ago
And when nobody is nigh you cry.
