Duke Ellington - Sophisticated lady

Tekst :

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 all you really want?

No, Sophisticated Lady, I know
You miss the love you lost long ago
And when nobody is nigh you cry

Is that all you really want?

No, Sophisticated Lady, I know
You miss the heart you lost long ago
And when nobody is nigh you cry

Inne utwory

  • I let a song go out of my heart
  • Lost in meditation
  • My little brown book
  • Bli-blip
  • In a sentimental mood
  • Everything but you
  • Rocks in my bed
  • In a mellow tone
  • All too soon
  • Drop me off in harlem
  • Love you Madly
  • Satin doll
  • Prelude to a kiss
  • Solitude
  • Losowe utwory

    How could you (Bring him home)

    I got the first flight out when I finished up the tour, because I missed you.
    I even flew home a day too soon all because I couldn t wait to kiss you.
    Oh how she will be loved, was the one thing stuck in my mind, and how tonight...

    Ode (deutsche)

    Häng mich auf, schau dabei zu.
    Lass mich Dich grinsen sehen, wenn ich sterbe.
    Nimm mich, wenn mein Koerper brennt.
    Lass mich Dich sehen, wenn Du Dich danach sehnst, dass ich weine.

    Ein selbstaendiger Schritt
    und Du trittst auf mir rum.
    Ein Kopf...

    Za mało godzin w dobie

    [RDW]
    Minuty płyną jak stare miasto płyta
    Za mało godzin w dobie i ta cisza jak pędziwiatr
    Na prędkości ogarniam sytuację
    Cały dzień nie dość mi czasu- komplikacje
    Wczoraj melanż do późna, to późńo wstaje
    Już pół dnia się wyróżniam, a twarz ma kolor dziwny
    Nike pod oczami w kolorze...

    Beat goes on

    That s why we move in the club and it s alright,
    That s why we move to the sound and it s all night,
    I wanna see you dance to the groove till the moonlight
    Just free yourself free your soul through the movement (x2)

    And the beat...

    Someday

    Someday we gonna rise up on that wind you know
    Someday we gonna dance with those lions
    Someday we gonna break free from these chains and keep on flyin

    They tellin me it s all good just wait
    You know you re gonna...
