Duke Ellington - Sophisticated lady

Tekst :

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 lost long ago
And when nobody is nigh you cry

Is that all you really want?

No, Sophisticated Lady, I know
You miss the heart you lost long ago
And when nobody is nigh you cry

  • Day dream
  • Satin doll
  • Rocks in my bed
  • I got it bad
  • Caravan
  • Azure
  • Everything but you
  • All too soon
  • I let a song go out of my heart
  • Prelude to a kiss
  • My little brown book
  • In a mellow tone
  • Drop me off in harlem
  • Solitude
  • Bli-blip
  • In a sentimental mood
  • Just squeeze me
  • Lush life
  • Lost in meditation
  • Losowe utwory

    Young Robin

    I m a young robin way up hig,
    too old for the nest, too young to die,
    watching the jays and the grackles sail by,
    calling me bad names.
    I know I could fly if I wanted to,
    I know I could fly if I wanted to,
    I know I could fly if I wanted to,
    I...

    Imaginary zone

    I am trying to explore
    the mountain of mystery
    I envy and adore
    the myth and its history

    I am in the house of dreams
    a different dimension
    nothing is as it seems
    an altered direction

    I can rest, I...

    300 Kilos

    Con lo que tengo
    me sobra pa cantar
    hay una lata y un palo
    un tambor pa improvisar
    hoy con mi mamita
    no voy ni a trabajar
    solo pido hierba buena
    pa ponerme a cocinar
    que bueno

    Stay with me

    There were times you made me cry
    lookin for a reason why
    There were times you made me fly
    stay with me untill I die

    There were times you made me cry
    lookin for a reason why
    There were times you made me fly
    stay with me untill I...

    Macar

    Macar la noapte
    Na,na, na, na ……

    1. A fost si toamna, au fost si nori.
    A fost si iarna cu-ale ei ninsori.
    A fost si primavara au fost si flori
    Te-am visat de-atatea ori.

    R. Macar aproape de tine
    Macar la noapte
    Te-as stange-n brate
    Ti-as vorbi numai in soapte.
    Atunci cand sunt langa tine
    Ma simt mai bine
    As vrea...
