"Mona Lisa"
(Ray Evans / Jay Livingston)

Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa, men have named you
You're so like the lady with a mystic smile
Is it only 'cause you're lonely, they have blamed you
For that Mona Lisa's strangnest in your smile.

Do you smile to tempt the lover, Mona Lisa
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there.

Are you warm are you real, Mona Lisa
Or just a cold and lonely lovely work of art?

[Instrumental]

Do you smile to tempt the lover, Mona Lisa
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there.

Are you warm are you real, Mona Lisa
Or just a cold and lonely lovely work of art?..
