Lush Life

Life is lonely again
And only last year
Everything seemed so sure
Now, life is awful again
A troughful of hearts
Could only be a bore
A week in Paris
Will ease the bite of it
All I care is to smile
In spite of it

I'll forget you, I will
While yet you are still
Burning inside my brain
Romance is mush
Stifling those who strive
I'll live a lush life
In some small dive
And there I'll be
While I rot
With the rest
Of those whose lives are lonely too
