I walk along the street of sorrow
|
The boulevard of broken dreams
|
Where gigolo and gigolette
|
Can take a kiss without regret
|
So they forget their broken dreams.
|
|
You laugh tonight and cry tomorrow
|
When you behold your shattered schemes.
|
And gigolo and gigolette
|
Wake up to find their eyes are wet
|
With tears that tell of broken dreams.
|
|
Here is where you'll always find me,
|
Always walking up and down,
|
But I left my soul behind me
|
In an old cathedral town.
|
|
The joy that you find here, you borrow,
|
You cannot keep it long it seems.
|
But gigolo and gigolette
|
Still sing a song and dance along
|
The boulevard of broken dreams.
|
|
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da,
|
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da.
|
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da,
|
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da.
|
|
The joy that you find here, you borrow,
|
You cannot keep it long it seems.
|
But gigolo and gigolette
|
Still sing a song and dance along
|
The boulevard of broken dreams.
