Lyrics for 'Miami 2017 (Seen The Lights Go Out On Broadway)' by 'Billy Joel'
I've Seen The Lights Go Out On Broadway-
I Saw The Empire State Laid Low.
And Life Went On Beyond The Palisades,
They All Bought Bright Cadillacs-
And Left There Long Ago.
We Held A Concert Out In Brooklyn-
To Watch The Island Bridges Blow.
They Turned Our Power Down,
And Drove Us Underground-
But We Went Right On With The Show...
I've Seen The Lights Go Out On Broadway-
I Saw The Ruins At My Feet,
You Know We Almost Didn't Notice It-
We'd See It All The Time On Forty-second Street.
They Burned The Churches Up In Harlem-
Like In That Spanish Civil War-
The Flames Were Everywhere,
But No One Really Cared-
It Always Burned Up There Before....
I Saw The Lights Go Out On Broadway-
I Watched The Mighty Skyline Fall.
The Boats Were Waiting At The Battery,
The Union Went On Strike-
They Never Sailed At All.
They Sent A Carrier Out From Norfolk-
And Picked The Yankees Up For Free.
They Said That Queens Could Stay,
They Blew The Bronx Away-
And Sank Manhattan Out To Sea....
You Know Those Lights Were Bright On Broadway-
But That Was So Many Years Ago...
Before We All Lived Here In Florida-
Before The Mafia Took Over Mexico.
There Are Not Many Who Remember-
They Say A Handful Still Survive...
To Tell The World About...
The Way The Lights Went Out,
And Keep The Memory Alive....
