Richard Marx - Miami 2017 Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Ive seen the lights go out on broadway,
  • I saw the empire state laid low.
  • And life went on beyond the palaces.
  • They all bought cadillacs,
  • Left there long ago
  • We held a concert out in brooklyn.
  • To watch the island bridges blow.
  • It turned our power down,
  • And drove us underground,
  • But we went right on with the show.
  • Ive seen the lights go out on broadway,
  • I saw the ruins at life end.
  • You know we almost didnt notice it,
  • We see it all the time
  • On 42nd street
  • It burned the churches up in harlem
  • Like in that spanish civil war.
  • The flames were everywhere,
  • And no one really cared,
  • It always burned up there before
  • Ive seen the rats lie down on broadway,
  • And I watched the miami skyline fall.
  • The folks were waving at the battery
  • The union went on strike
  • They never settled it out.
  • They sent a carrier out from norfolk,
  • And picked the yankees up for free.
  • They said the queens could stay
  • And threw the crowns away,
  • And sent manhattan out to sea.
  • She knows those lights right on broadway
  • That was so many years ago.
  • Before we all lived in florida.
  • Before the mafia,
  • Took over mexico.
  • There are too many who remember.
  • They say a handful still survive.
  • To tell the world about,
  • The way the lights went out,
  • To keep the memory alive.
