Wynton Marsalis and Shirley Horn - I Can't Get Started

I've flown around the world in a plane
I've settled revolutions in Spain
The North Pole I have charted
But I can't get started with you

The millionaires I've had to turn down
Would stretch from London to New York town
The upper crust I visit
But say, what is it with you?

Life's so supreme
Lyrics I'd write of you, scheme
At the sight of you, dream
Day and night of you

But what else can I do?
The beauty columns ask for my advice
Though I was Miss America twice
You've got me so downhearted
'Cause I can't get started with you

Life's so supreme
Lyrics I'd write of you, scheme
At the sight of you, dream
Day and night of you

But what else can I do?
The beauty columns ask for my advice
Though I was Miss America twice
You've got me so downhearted
'Cause I can't get started with you
