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
And I swear it was beautiful before they sent those airplanes
And I thought I would show it to you just like my dad did
Hometown come tumbling down
When she came on a friday
I took her home the long way
So she could see
And she asked how they made it
And would they ever change it
I said no way
Half of what you see and none of what you hear believe
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.
Hometown come tumbling down
And we watched it and we cried
And we ran to the front line
And some came home
But 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
and I swear it was beautiful I hope they build them tall again
Until then your imagination is all that you will have
