I Wonder What Became of Me Songtext

von Toots Thielemans

The lights are bright
Pianos making music all the night
And they pour champagne
Just like it was rain
It's a sight to see
But I wonder what became of me

Crowds go by
That merry making laughter in their eyes
And the laughter's fine
But I wonder what became of mine

Life's sweet as honey, and yet it's funny
I get a feeling that I can't analyze
It's like well maybe
Like when a baby
Sees the bubble burst before it's eye

Oh, I've had my thrills
They've lit my cigarettes with dollar bills
But I can't be gay
For along the way
Something went astray
And I can't explain
It's the same champagne
It's a sight to see
But I wonder what became of me
