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 and 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 bossanova |
|
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 and 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) |
