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 (Downtown) |
|
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 'em 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 alright now (Downtown, downtown) |
|
Downtown (Downtown) |
|
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 and go |
|
Downtown, things'll be great when you're |
|
Downtown, don't wait a minute more |
|
Downtown, everything's waiting for you |
|
Downtown (downtown) downtown (downtown) |
|
Downtown (downtown) downtown (downtown) [repeat and fade out] |
