[PAULA] I always knew I'd see this day I can't say it's a shock What's that expression? Qu'est-ce que c'est? He's "a chip off the old block" But if you see him Please pa** on this plea Don't be a stranger Tell him that for me My Frankie had a clever mind He could spend hours all alone I wouldn't have been surprised to find He changed his diaper on his own Could I have been there more? Well, c'est la vie Don't be a stranger Tell him that for me Though I tried, I couldn't hide When love had flown away Children close their eyes But still they see I took a chance, a new romance Is it a crime to say I made a choice And chose what's best for me His father had a head for dreams But not the midas touch His father had a million schemes But dollars? Not so much You want the apple Go look for the tree And don't be a stranger Tell him that for me [FRANK SR.] I used to have what made her smile But now, it's all been spent I've tons of charm, I'm lousy with style But that don't pry the rent So if you spot her out there on a spree Tell her don't be a stranger Tell her that for me I used to be a prince to her This prince had lost his crown I brought her laughs, she wanted fur No wonder love fell down Arrest the clown who said The best things in life are free Then, don't be a stranger Tell her that for me One more round at the lost and found That's if you've got the dough Happy hour is suddenly last call [PAULA] My eyes are dry, I said goodbye So many tears ago [BOTH] The past is just a photo on the wall [FRANK SR.] I guess to you I seem a schmuck Well, I'll just bide my time [PAULA] In love, all's fair [FRANK SR.] 'Cause I believe that lady luck Can still turn on a dime [PAULA] Comme a la guere [FRANK SR.] And maybe one Will once again be three [PAULA] C'est c'que j'ai toujours dit [FRANK SR.] Don't be a stranger Tell them that for me [PAULA] Don't be a stranger Tell him that for me [BOTH] (No) Don't be a stranger Tell him (them) that for me
