Miami 2017 (Seen the Lights Go Out on Broadway) - Richard Marx (理查德·马克思)[00:00:00]
I've seen the lights go out on Broadway[00:00:24]
I saw the Empire State laid low[00:00:30]
And life went on beyond the palaces[00:00:37]
The all bought Cadillacs[00:00:41]
Left there long ago[00:00:44]
We held a concert out in Brooklyn[00:00:49]
To watch the island bridges blow[00:00:55]
It turned our power down[00:01:01]
And drove us underground[00:01:04]
But we went right on with the show[00:01:07]
I've seen the lights go out on Broadway[00:01:21]
I saw the ruins at life end[00:01:27]
You know we almost didn't notice it[00:01:33]
We see it all the time[00:01:37]
On 42nd street[00:01:40]
It burned the churches up in Harlem[00:01:44]
Like in that Spanish Civil War[00:01:50]
The flames were everywhere[00:01:55]
And no one really cared[00:01:58]
It always burned up there before[00:02:01]
I've seen the rats lie down on Broadway[00:02:15]
And I watched the Miami skyline fall[00:02:20]
The folks were waving at the battery[00:02:26]
The union went on strike[00:02:30]
They never settled at out[00:02:33]
They sent a carrier out from Norfolk[00:02:37]
And picked the Yankees up for free[00:02:43]
They said the queen could stay[00:02:49]
And threw the crowns away[00:02:52]
And sent Manhattan out to sea[00:02:54]
She knows those lights right on Broadway[00:03:09]
That was so many years ago[00:03:14]
Before we all lived here in Florida[00:03:21]
Before the mafia[00:03:25]
Took over Mexico[00:03:28]
There are many who remember[00:03:33]
They say a handful still survive[00:03:39]
To tell the world about[00:03:45]
The way the lights went out[00:03:48]
To keep the memory alive[00:03:51]
