[Verse 1]
I'd trade all my sunshine, for twin towers to hide behind
And find you there
When I left on that sunday
To come home on a tuesday
Well I never
I never thought I'd have to stay and watch the world explode

[Refrain]
And I swear it was beautiful before they sent those airplanes
And I thought I would show them to you just like my dad did
Home town come tumbling down

[Verse 2]
When she came on that sunday
I took her home the long way
So she could see
And she asked when they made it
And would they ever change it
I said no way
Is half of what you see and none of what you hear believe

[Refrain]
And I told her I that they remind me of Motown, sixties, skinny ties
What they thought the future looked like where the Jetsons lived
Home town come tumbling down
[Piano Solo]

[Verse 3]
We watched it and we cried
And we ran to the front line
And some came home
And I stay off the expressway
Nothing to see there anyway
That view sucks now
But there was a time the Brooklyn traffic couldn't get me down

[Refrain]
I swear it was beautiful
I hope they build it tall again
Until then your imagination is all that you will have...

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
East Side, West Side
All around the town
(?)
With all the Bridges Falling Down
Boys and girls together
Me and maybe your heart
(?)
On the sidewalks of New York
