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 falling, baby, through the sky, through the sky I'm falling, baby, through the sky It's my calling, baby, don't you cry, don't you cry I'm falling 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 brave in crazy weather Drowning out my cries I pull myself together I'm focused on the prize
I'm falling, baby, through the sky, through the sky I'm falling, baby, through the sky It's my calling, baby, don't you cry, don't you cry I'm falling down through the sky
It's a tune you can't hum Oh, Broadway here I come Mmmmm....
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 playing all my cards Baby, you are gonna hear it When I give them my regards
I'm falling, baby, through the sky, through the sky I'm falling, baby, through the sky It's my calling, baby, don't you cry, don't you cry I'm falling down through the sky
And I refuse to go numb Oh, Broadway, here I come Broadway, here I come Broadway, here I come
