Linda Ronstadt
"Sophisticated Lady" lyrics

Sophisticated Lady

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 had long ago
And when nobody is nigh
You cry

No
Sophisticated lady
I know
You miss the love
You had long ago
And when nobody is nigh
You cry
You cry
You cry
