| I’m high above the city
|
| I’m standing on the ledge
|
| The view from here is pretty
|
| And I step off the edge
|
| And now I’m fallin', baby
|
| Through the sky, through the sky
|
| And I’m fallin', baby through the sky
|
| It’s my callin', baby
|
| Don’t you cry, don’t you cry
|
| And I’m fallin' down through the sky
|
| Toward the street that I’m from
|
| Oh, Broadway, here I come
|
| Broadway, here I come
|
| The pressure it increases
|
| The closer that I get
|
| I could almost go to pieces
|
| But I’m not quite there yet
|
| See, I’ve been bravin' crazy weather
|
| Drownin' out my cries
|
| I pull myself together
|
| I’m focused on the prize
|
| I’m fallin', baby
|
| Through the sky, through the sky
|
| I’m fallin', baby through the sky
|
| It’s my callin', baby
|
| Don’t you cry, don’t you cry
|
| 'Cause I’m fallin' down through the sky
|
| And it’s a tune you can hum
|
| Oh, Broadway here I come
|
| Mmmmmmmm
|
| Will I remain the same
|
| Or will I change a little bit?
|
| Will I feel broken or totally complete?
|
| Will I retain my name when I’m the biggest, hugest hit?
|
| Or will I blend in with the rest of the street
|
| The people all are pointing
|
| I bet they’d never guess
|
| That the saint that they’re anointing
|
| Is frightened of the mess
|
| But even though I fear it
|
| I’m playin' all my cards…
|
| Baby, you are gonna hear it
|
| When I give them my regards
|
| I’m fallin' baby
|
| Through the sky, through the sky
|
| Now I’m fallin', baby through the sky
|
| It’s my callin', baby
|
| Don’t you cry, don’t you cry
|
| And I’m fallin' down through the sky
|
| And I refuse to go numb
|
| Oh, Broadway here I come
|
| Broadway, here I come
|
| Broadway, here I come
|
| Oh, Broadway, Broadway, here I come
|
| Here I come!
|
| And the last thing I hear
|
| As the impact grows near
|
| Is it a scream or a cheer?
|
| Well, never mind, I’ll never find out
|
| 'Cause Broadway I am here |
