Sophisticated Lady

Billie Holiday

Transposer:

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 Bridge Smoking and drinking Never thinking of tomorrow nonchalant Diamonds shining Dancing dining with some man in a restaurant Is that all you really want No Sophistcated Lady I know you miss the love you lost long ago And when nobody is nigh you cry You cry you cry

La chanson évoque l'histoire d'une femme dont la jeunesse a été marquée par un amour intense, mais qui s'est terni avec le temps. Elle décrit comment, après avoir connu la passion et le rêve, elle se retrouve souvent à vivre une vie superficielle, entourée de luxe et de mondanités, mais ressentant un manque profond. Malgré son allure sophistiquée et son comportement désinvolte, le chagrin d'un amour perdu demeure en elle, et elle pleure cette absence dans l'intimité de sa solitude. Les souvenirs d'un amour authentique persistent, soulignant la fragilité des émotions humaines face aux illusions de la vie.
