"The Boulevard Of Broken Dreams"

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.
[REPEAT]

"The Christmas Waltz"

Frosted window panes
Candles gleaming inside
Painted candy canes on the tree
Santa's on his way,
He's filled his sleigh
With things, things for you and for me

It's that time of year
When the world falls in love
Every song you hear
Seems to say
Merry Christmas
May your New Year dreams come true
And this song of mine
In three quarter time
Wishes you and yours
The same thing too

Merry Christmas
May your New Year dreams come true
And this song of mine
In three quarter time
Wishes you and yours
The same thing too
Merry Christmas to you

"The Gentle Rain"

We both are lost and alone in the world,
Walk with me in the gentle rain.
Don't be afraid; I've a hand for your hand,
And I will be your love for a while.

I feel your tears as they fall on my cheek,
They are warm like the gentle rain.
Come little one you've got me in the world
And our love will be sweet, very sad, very sweet

Like the gentle rain, like the gentle rain, like the gentle rain

"The Girl I Love"
(feat. Sheryl Crow)

Someday he'll come along, the man I love
And he'll be big and strong, the man I love
And when he comes my way
I'll do my best to make him stay

She'll look at him and smile,
He'll understand
And in a little while he'll take her hand
And though it seems absurd
I know we both won't say a word

Maybe you will meet him Sunday
Maybe Monday, maybe not
Still I'm sure to meet him one day
Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day

You'll build a little home, just meant for two
From which I'll never roam, who would, would you?
And so all else above she's waiting for
The man she loves

Maybe I will meet him Sunday
Maybe Monday, maybe not
Still I'm sure you'll meet him one day
Maybe Tuesday will be your good news day

We'll build a little home, just meant for two
From which you'll never roam, who would, would you?
And so all else above I'm waiting for
The man she loves (I love)

"The Good Life"
(feat. Billy Joel)

Oh, the good life, full of fun seems to be the ideal
Mm, the good life lets you hide all the sadness you feel
You won't really fall in love for you can't take the chance
So please be honest with yourself, don't try to fake romance

It's the good life to be free and explore the unknown
Like the heartaches when you learn you must face them alone
Please remember I still want you, and in case you wonder why
Well, just wake up, kiss the good life goodbye

"The Hands Of Time"

If the hands of time
Were hands that I could hold
I’d keep them warm and in my hands
They’d not turn cold

Hand in hand we’d choose
The moments that should last
The lovely moments that
Should have no future
And no past

The summer from the top of a swing
The comfort in the sound of a lullaby
The innocence of leaves in the spring
But most of all, the moment when love
First touched me

All the happy days
Would never learn to fly
Until the hands of time
Would choose to wave goodbye

Two and two are four
Four and four are eight
That's all you have on your business-like mind
Two and two are four
Four and four are eight
How can you be so blind?

Inch worm, inch worm
Measuring the marigolds
You and your arithmetic
You'll probably go far

Inch worm, inch worm
Measuring the marigolds
Seems to me, you'd stop and see
How beautiful they are

Inch worm, inch worm

"The Lady Is A Tramp"

[Tony Bennett:]
She gets too hungry for dinner at 8

[Lady Gaga:]
(I'm starving)

[Tony Bennett:]
She loves the theater but she never comes late

[Lady Gaga:]
I never bother with people that I hate
That's why this chick is a tramp

[Tony Bennett:]
She doesn't like crap games with barons and earls

[Lady Gaga:]
Won't go to Harlem in ermine and pearls
And I definitely won't dish our dirt with the rest of those girls

[Tony Bennett:]
That's why the lady is a tramp

[Lady Gaga:]
I love the free fresh wind in my hair

[Tony Bennett:]
Life without care

[Lady Gaga:]
Oh, I'm so broke,

It's OK

[Lady Gaga:]
I hate California. It's crowded and damp

Jeter is just fine

[Lady Gaga:]
I follow Rogers and Hart

[Tony Bennett:]
She sings every line

[BOTH:]
That's why the lady is a tramp

[Lady Gaga:]
I love the prize fight

[Tony Bennett:]
That isn't a fake

[Lady Gaga:]
No fakes

And I love to rowboat with you and your wife in Central Park Lake

[Tony Bennett:]
She goes to the opera and stays wide awake

[Lady Gaga:]
Yes I do

That's why this lady is a tramp

[Tony Bennett:]
She likes the green (green) grass (grass) under her shoes

[Lady Gaga:]
What can I lose? 'cause I got no dough (Oh no?)
I'm all alone when I lower my lamp

[Tony Bennett:]
That's why the lady is a tramp
Go

[Lady Gaga:]
I love your free, fresh, I love your handkerchief in my hair

[Tony Bennett:]
Life without care

[Lady Gaga:]
But I'm so broke!

That's OK!

Hates California, it's cold and it's damp

"The Lady's In Love With You"

If there’s a gleam in her eye
Each time she straightens your tie
That means the lady’s in love with you
And if she can’t dress for a date
Without that waiting you hate
That means the lady’s in love with you
And when your friends ask you over to join the table
But she will find that far away booth for two
Well Jack, here’s just how it stands
You’ve got romance on your hands
Because the lady’s in love with you

"The Long And Winding Road"

The long and winding road
That leads to your door
Will never disappear
I've seen that road before
It always leads me here
Lead me to you door

The wild and windy night
That the rain washed away
Has left a pool of tears
Crying for the day
Why leave me standing here?
Let me know the way

Many times I've been alone
And many times I've cried
Any way you'll never know
The many times I've tried

But still they lead me back
To the long, winding road
You left me standing here
A long, long time ago
Don't leave me waiting here
Lead me to your door

Once there was a way, to get back homeward
Once there was a way, to get back home

A way to lead me back
To the long, winding road
You left me standing here
A long, long time ago
Don't leave me waiting here
Lead me to your door

Don't leave me waiting here
Lead me to your door

"The Moment Of Truth"

If you hear music when she's near you
And Christmas comes ev'ry day of the year
Then you must know why it's the first clue
That the moment of truth is near

If ev'ry time she glances your way
A million bells start to ring loud and clear
And, after one kiss, you yell "Mayday!"
Then the moment of truth is near

There will come a day when she looks at you
Thrills you through and through and calls your name
That will be the day when you say "I do"
'cause you've discovered that you've grown tired of playin' the game

And then you both know you're through schemin'
"Oh Promise Me" starts to sing in your ear
You're wide-awake, boy, you're not dreamin'
'cause when you say "I do", the moment of truth
At last is here!

"The Playground"

When I hear children at play
Memories come from far away
Taking me, holding my hand
To the playground wonderland

See-saw, lifting you high
Swings that let you touch the sky
Then, whenever you're through
Painted ponies wait for you

It's a world, summertime free
Where else would you rather be?
With a friend there at your side
Up you climb and down you slide

When I hear children at play
(I love to play in the playground)
(Every time I go, I know that I'll find a friend)
Memories come from far away

Taking me, holding my hand
(I want to stay in the playground)
(When I'm there, I wish that it would never end)
To the playground wonderland

Taking turns, learning to share
Jungle Jim or teddy bear
Hide and seek, counting to ten
Oh, to play there once again

See-saw, lifting you high
Swings that let you touch the sky
Then, whenever you're through
Painted ponies wait for you

When I hear children at play
(I love to play in the playground)
(Every time I go, I know that I'll find a friend)
Memories come from far away

Taking me, holding my hand
(I want to stay in the playground)
(When I'm there, I wish that it would never end)
To the playground wonderland

"The Right To Love"

My love and I ask little of the world
The right to sigh together in the rain
And walk with hands up in the sun
And share our joys and our pains

And yet they say that we were wrong
That we hadn't the right to our love
That this love was shameful to see
And yet we treasured our love

And so we go our solitary way
Indifferent to the cold unfriendly stares
Indifferent to the whispered talk

We don't care at all
We have all we need
As long as we can be together

We find our consolation in each other's eyes
The sweet look of wonder
We know that we have earned the precious right to love

"The Riviera"

The Riviera
On every street a gay casino
Where continentals sip their vino
And leave their fortunes to chance

The Riviera
Nevada’s number one casino
Where ladies make the play for dino
In that pursuit of romance

Every gay mademoiselle
Is disarming some maharajah
With the daring of her décolletage

Every [?] will be willing to bet you
She’s gonna be what you will get

Ah the Riviera
Where every golden coat of suntan
Has cost the gold of more than one man
Who wasn't warned in advance

He can live like a king
Have a fabulous fling
Then as a token for the dough that he's sunk
He gets a little label slapped on his trunk

"The Second Time Around"

Love is lovelier the second time around
Just as wonderful with both feet on the ground
It's that second time you hear your love song sung
Makes you think perhaps that love like youth is wasted on the young

Love's more comfortable the second time you fall
Like a friendly home the second time you call
Who can say what led us to this miracle we've found?
There are those who'll bet love comes but once and yet
I'm oh so glad we met the second time around

"The Shadow Of Your Smile"
(feat. Juanes)

One day we walked along the sand
One day in early spring
You held a piper in your hand
To mend its broken wing
Now I'll remember many a day
And many a lonely mile
The echo of a piper's song
The shadow of a smile

The shadow of your smile
When you are gone
Will color all my dreams
And light the dawn
Look into my eyes
My love and see
All the lovely things
You are to me

Our wistful little star
Was far too high
A teardrop kissed your lips
And so did I
Now when I remember spring
All the joy that love can bring
I will be remembering
The shadow of your smile

"The Shining Sea"

We loved the shining sea
She gathered sea shells there fore me
Her hands, I love her hands

We’d sit there on the sand
She’d kiss the hollow of my hand
A kiss, I miss a kiss

I hear the grey gulls cry
I see them dip their wings
I feel the pounding surf
And other things

I can’t believe she’s gone
I think I’ll go where she might be
I’ll go, I need her so

I need our shining sea
