When you're alone

"Downtown"

When you're alone
And life is making you lonely
You can always go
Downtown

When you 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 sidewalks
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 will 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

You may find somebody kind
To help and understand you
Someone who is just like you
Who 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 will be great when you're
Downtown
Don't wait a minute more
Downtown
Everything's waiting for you
Downtown
Downtown
Downtown
Downtown
Downtown
