  1. [Lyric] Amour (Michel Legrand)

    (A long while later...) [DUSOLEIL] Mon amour... [ISABELLE] Mon amour... [DUSOLEIL] Has there ever been a night more beautiful than this is? [ISABELLE] Seven hours in bed My head's still reeling from your kisses [DUSOLEIL] I had no idea that making love could be so splendid [ISABELLE] So splendid [BOTH] Don't you think it's odd How easily our...Learn More

  2. [Lyric] Somebody (Michel Legrand)

    (ISABELLE sits alone on her balcony.) [ISABELLE] It's the time of day When the world is grey I am waiting Waiting for somebody And I search the skies With my aching eyes For my special someone My somebody Though I know it's wrong All my senses long For the man who's strong and can comfort me And oh How I long for him to hold me My somebody will...Learn More

  3. [Lyric] Isabelle on Her Balcony (Michel Legrand)

    (DUSOLEIL waits in the shadows.) [ISABELLE] He's out of prison He's out of prison My Passepartout I heard about it on the news today I somehow knew it How did he do it? At last, he's free again He's free again He got away They'll never find him No, never find him [PROSECUTOR] (inside) Hey, Isabelle! Come help me find my missing shoe! Or,...Learn More

  4. [Lyric] Serenade (Michel Legrand)

    [DUSOLEIL] Was it too beautiful to last? Now I'm immured, now I'm stuck fast I'm half without and half within And look - my friends have come to call To see the Wallman in his wall And keep me warm and dry in winter It seems the doctor found the cure And though I've plenty to endure My place in history's assured me I'll face posterity in...Learn More

  5. [Lyric] Fly with me (Michel Legrand)

    [Chorus] Fly with me Past Jupiter and Mars Come and see Fields dappled bright with stars Galaxies in astral seas above On cosmic paths we'll trace Man's journey into space [Verse 1] Fly with me And watch as skies unfold Superstars in numbers still untold Dwarves at play On frosted Milky Way On silver wings we'll race Like shooting stars through...Learn More

  6. [Lyric] Prosecutors Song (Michel Legrand)

    (The PROSECUTOR emerges from under ISABELLE's balcony.) [PROSECUTOR] I always bolt the door In case she flies the coop You see, I'm not a total nincompoop She is twenty-six And I am forty-two And so I lock her in Well, wouldn't you? Best to keep your chattels Under lock and key Best to guard your private property If I found some dog Was sniffing...Learn More

  7. [Lyric] Monsieur Passepartout (Michel Legrand)

    (A few days later.) [NEWSVENDOR] Extra, extra! A sensation Unrecorded hitherto! There's a man who walks through concrete So there’s nothing he can't do! He makes quick work Of the brickwork As he's gliding, sliding through He’s the key for every keyhole So they call him "Passepartout"! [DUSOLEIL] (overhearing) Passepartout! Monsieur...Learn More

  8. [Lyric] Edith (Michel Legrand)

    J'écoute Edith, sur un phono Par hasard un disque en mono La chanson est de Marguerite… Qui n’a pas connu Gémini Ni les Minets, ni les mini- Jupes ou cerveaux qu’on nous débite Je connais la chanson par cœur Je ne vois pas pourquoi j’ai peur Soudain d’apprendre quelque chose De tragique et bête àla fois Qui n’existait pas autrefois Quand tu...Learn More

  9. [Lyric] I Was Born in Love with You (Michel Legrand)

    I was born in love with you Opened my eyes in love with you From another time, from another place, from another world I remember your face I walked to find the way to you Learned how to speak to say to you Stay with me now through the mists of forever I was born in love with you First saw the Sun in love with you My eyes knew your smile My hand...Learn More

  10. [Lyric] Comme elle est longue à mourir ma jeunesse (Michel Legrand)

    Comme elle est longue à mourir ma jeunesse Ma jeunesse dans mon cœur Je ne l'ai jamais trahie ma jeunesse Qui me laisse à mon émoi et qui s'en va de moi Comme elle est longue à mourir cette rose Cette rose de la vie La plus belle du jardin des folies Une rose, la dernièrе du jardin qu'on oublie Comme ils sont lourds à porter dans l'automnе Dans...Learn More

  11. [Lyric] An Ordinary Guy (Michel Legrand)

    (DUSOLEIL is alone in the street. He turns to the audience and tips his hat, shyly.) [DUSOLEIL] I don't deserve your attention I'm hardly worthy of mention I've got a job and a pension Nothing remarkable, nothing very strange I go to work on a Monday And to the park on a Sunday Never suspecting that one day My life would suddenly change I'm just...Learn More
