They said, 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 this illusion deep in your eyes, You learned that fools in love soon grow eyes. The years have changed you, somehow I see you now. This is you, smoking, drinking, never thinking of tomorrow. Dancer on, diamond shining, dancing, dining with some man in a restaurant. Is that really what you want? No, no. Sophisticated lady, I know, you missed the love you lost long ago. And when nobody is nigh, you cry, it's true. Into your early life romance came, And in this heart of yours burned a flame, A flame that flickered one day and died away. Oh, sophisticated lady. Into your early life romance came, And in this heart of yours burned a flame, A flame that flickered one day and died away.
