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

Do you smile to
tempt a 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?



Do you
smile to tempt a 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?

Mona Lisa, Mona
Lisa
