The other woman finds time to manicure her nails.
The other woman is perfect where her rival fails.
And she’s never seen with pin curls in her hair.
The other woman enchants her clothes with French perfume.
The other woman keeps fresh cut flowers in each room.
There are never toys that’s scattered everywhere.
And when her baby caomes to call
He’ll find her waiting like a lonesome queen.
Cause when she’s by his side
It’s such a change form the old routine.
But the other woman will always cry herself to sleep.
The other woman will never have his love to keep.
And as the years go by, the other woman
Will spend her life alone.
his voice reminds me of both nina (of course) and chet baker, with their tender feel. those 2 are my favourite jazz vocalists and i really like jeff's voice too
I first heard this song sang by Lana Del Reys and thought what a nice strong song. Then I saw Jeff Buckley. Had a recording and this song became a wonderful song, his voice is pure heaven the tone is wonderful. I checked a few different singers who have covered this song but for me Jeff Buckley's one is the best.

I noticed he covers a lot of Nina Simone. Only deep thinkers can keep up with Nina Simone--complicated people. Not knowing your father (or other traumas) can make people complicated.
