I Wonder What Became Of Me - Toots Thielemans, Trijntje Oosterhuis

The lights are bright

Pianos making music all the night

They pour champagne

Just like it’s rain

It’s a sight to see

But I wonder what became of me

Crowds go by

They’re merry making laughter in their eyes

And the laughter’s fine

But I wonder what became of mine

Life’s sweet as honey, but still it’s funny

I get this feeling that I can’t analyze

It’s like well maybe

When like the baby

Sees the bubble burst before it’s eye

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
