LIGHTER THAN THIN AIR
WALKING ACROSS BROADWAY
ON A SUNNY AFTERNOON
REMEMBERING HOW THESE STREETS
USED TO LOOK BEFORE THE BIG BOOM
NOW LOST IN THE UNDERGROUND
BUILDINGS COVERED IN POSTERS
ROCK STARS HANGING OUT ON SIDEWALKS
LONG NIGHTS TURNING INTO EARLY DAYS
POETS MAKING LOVE TO PAINTERS
IN AN EXPLOSION OF EXPRESSION
UNTIL THE GALLERIES FADED AWAY
IF YOU LOOK HARD ENOUGH
THE OLD SPIRIT IS STILL HERE
IT'S NOT AS EASY TO SEE IT
IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO LOOK FOR
BUT THE OLD CHARACTERS EXIST
THE FIRE STILL BURNS INSIDE
CREATORS BLEEDING EMOTIONS
HANGING OUT AT THE OLD HAUNTS
FINDING HIDDEN MASTERPIECES
PAINTED OVER THIRTY YEARS AGO
WHERE THE MUSIC ONCE PLAYED
WHEN ARTISTS RULED THE WORLD
