Boulevard Of Broken Dreams

This version did not chart but

In 1934, it was a # 6 hit for Jan Garber

Sung in the film "Moulin Rouge" by Constance (no relation) Bennett

Words by Al Dubin and Music by Harry Warren

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

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

Gigolo and gigolette

Still sing a song and dance along

The boulevard of broken dreams

Here is where you'll always find me

Always walking up and down

For 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
