I walk along the street of sorrow –
The boulevard of broken dreams –
Where Gigolo and Gigolette –
Can take a kiss without regret –
And so forget their broken dreams.
You laugh today 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.
“Game of Life” performed by Tony Bennett
