Broadway Show - Nicky Byrne

Followed her home

On an August bank holiday

Sun hanging low

From a paper blue sky

I remember the smell

Of the lavender canopy

Remember the moment

Our hands intertwined

In her red summer dress

As we sat on the balcony

I kissed her cheek

Then I whispered a lie

She told me my life was

The ultimate comedy

Showed me the door

Then sh waved me goodbye

Oh whn I was young

What I didn’t know

That right from the start

I was playing a part

'Cause life is a beautiful Broadway show

Na na na na yeah, na na

Na na na na yeah

An American girl

On a train out of Connolly

Happened to sit in the seat

Next to me

Right from the start

There was magical chemistry

Suddenly noticed her looking at me

So I told her her voice

Was as sweet as a melody

Sparkling eyes

Were as blue as the sea

She started to laugh

Spilt her coffee all over me

Then as she left

Said, «Are you kidding me»

Oh when I was young

What I didn’t know

That right from the start

I was playing a part

'Cause life is a beautiful Broadway show

Oh was it wrong

Oh I didn’t know

That right from the start

I was playing a part

'Cause life is a beautiful Broadway show

Oh, to be young forever

Would I change a thing?

No not ever

So I’m sitting alone

On the last flight from Kennedy

Thinking of things that I’ve done in my life

The stuardess smiles

And says

Buckle up safely now

Stop myself thinking could you be my wife?

Oh when I was young

What I didn’t know

That right from the start

I was playing a part

'Cause life is a beautiful Broadway show

Oh was it wrong

Oh I didn’t know

That right from the start

I was playing a part

'Cause life is a beautiful Broadway show

Na na na na yeah, na na

Na na na na yeah

Na na na na yeah, na na

Na na na na yeah

Hey life is a beautiful

Yeah life is a beautiful broadway show

Life is a beautiful

Yeah life is a beautiful broadway show
