                                  *****


          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, SOPHISICATED LADY, I KNOW, 
          YOU MISS THE LOVE YOU LOST LONG AGO, 
          AND WHEN NOBODY IS NIGH YOU CRY
