Milord - Dalida, Juliette Gréco

Come on get wise, Milord

Her lips tells lies, Milord

The girl that you adore

Has found another guy

She just got bored, Milord

Now you’re ignored, Milord

Deep down inside your pride

Won’t let you say goodbye

That southern belle, Milord

Has got a heart of ice

Love can be done, Milord

As well as paradise

You met her at a bar

Her lips were ruby red

Her lazy southern draw

Soon turn your noble head

You swore you never part

Though you live far away

How could you know a heart

Like other hearts would stray

Come on get hip, Milord

And let life rip, Milord

Be sure there’s plenty more

Of loving to be done

There, just to meet, Milord

With lips as sweet, Milord

And hearts to make and break

Before the race is run

So hit the town, Milord

Come on and be my guest

We’ll turn it upside down

And devil takes the rest

The story is the same

Whenever young love grows

And no one is to blame

It’s just the way it goes

You’re not the first who’s found

That love can be unkind

And still the world goes round

But one heart’s left behind
