Gardenia 歌詞

A million dollar face So ivory and fair That launched a thousand ships Danced with Fred Astaire Lusted for her dreams So passionate and wild So talented it seemed Everybody wants to be a Gardenia So beautiful and delicate to touch Something 'bout the way we loved Gardenia As the years went by Her beauty didn't fade Movies didn't come She felt so betrayed because The more she had to give The less they want to buy I guess she outlived Her moment in the sun to be Gardenia So beautiful and delicate to touch Something 'bout the way we loved Gardenia Hadn't seen her for sometime And I apologized I said I'd give my youth to you For the wisdom in your eyes I wish I'd been there every day To take good care of you She said Baby, don't you cry I knew you'd come in time to see Gardenia And with her fragile hand she said good-bye Something 'bout the way we loved Gardenia
