Sophisticated Lady (Alternate Version)

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, no, sophisticated lady, I know
You miss the love you lost long ago
And when nobody is nigh, you cry

No, no, sophisticated lady, I know
You miss the love you lost long ago
And when nobody is nigh
When nobody is nigh
When nobody is nigh, you cry

You cry
