Broadway, Here I Come! (Version 2) (SMASH Cast Version) lyrics

[KAREN]
I'm high above the city
I'm standing on the ledge
The view from here is pretty
And I step off the edge

[JIMMY]
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

[KAREN & JIMMY]
Toward the street that I'm from
Oh, Broadway, here I come
Broadway, here I come

[ANA]
The pressure it increases
The closer that I get

[SAM]
I could almost go to pieces
But I'm not quite there yet

[KAREN & JIMMY]
See I've been braving crazy weather
Drowning out my cries
I pull myself together
I'm focused on the prize
[KAREN with HIT LIST CAST]
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 hum
Oh, Broadway here I come

[KAREN]
Mmmmm....

[KAREN with HIT LIST CAST]
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?

[KAREN & JIMMY]
Or will I blend in with the rest of the street?

[KAREN]
The people all are pointing

[JIMMY]
I bet they'd never guess
[ANA]
That the saint that they're anointing

[SAM]
Is frightened of the mess

[KAREN & JIMMY]
But even though I fear it
I'm playing all my cards

[KAREN]
Baby, you are gonna hear it
When I give them my regards

[KAREN with HIT LIST CAST]
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

[KAREN & JIMMY]
Broadway, here I come
[ANA]
Broadway, here I come

[KAREN]
Broadway, here I come
Broadway, here I come!
