When you're alone and life is making you lonely |
|
You can always go - downtown |
|
When you've got worries, all the noise and the hurry |
|
Seems to help, I know - downtown |
|
Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city |
|
Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty |
|
How can you lose? |
|
The lights are much brighter there |
|
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares |
|
So go downtown, things'll be great when you're |
|
Downtown - no finer place, for sure |
|
Downtown - everything's waiting for you |
|
Don't hang around and let your problems surround you |
|
There are movie shows - downtown |
|
Maybe you know some little places to go to |
|
Where they never close - downtown |
|
Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossa nova |
|
You'll be dancing with him too before the night is over |
|
Happy again |
|
The lights are much brighter there |
|
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares |
|
So go downtown, where all the lights are bright |
|
Downtown - waiting for you tonight |
|
Downtown - you're gonna be all right now |
|
[Instrumental break] |
|
And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you |
|
Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to |
|
Guide them along |
|
So maybe I'll see you there |
|
We can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares |
|
So go downtown, things'll be great when you're |
|
Downtown - don't wait a minute for |
|
Downtown - everything's waiting for you |
|
Downtown, downtown, downtown, downtown ... |
