There's a Broken Heart for Every Light on Broadway

Lyrics

There's a broken heart for every light on Broadway
 A million tears for every gleam, they say
 Those lights above you think nothing of you
 It's those that love you that have to pay
 There's a sorrow lurking in each gloomy shadow
 And sorrow comes to everyone someday
 T'will come to our brothers, but think of the mothers
 With broken hearts for each light on Broadway (it's Helen Sinclair)
 There's broken-hearted husbands, there's broken-hearted wives
 There's broken-hearted sweethearts who must now lead double-lives
 And there's the boy and girl who thought was right to take a chance
 And they all must pay the fiddler if they dance, dance, dance (Helen Sinclair, Helen Sinclair)
 There's a broken heart for every light on Broadway (Helen Sinclair)
 A million tears for every gleam, they say (it's Helen Sinclair)
 But if you have the fire, that bottomless desire
 That always yearning, fiercely churning, stomach turning need
 It's guaranteed, you'll succeed (it sounds so beautiful)
 So will you come to battle? (Yes!)
 With critics and their prattle? (Yes!)
 Will you join in Apollo's rendezvous? (I have no idea what that means)
 Then you will join the greats on old Broadway (I will join the greats on old Broadway)
 Then we will join the greats on old Broadway
