Petula Clark - Downtown Lyrics
(Tony Hatch)When you're aloneAnd life is making you lonely,You can always go downtownWhen you've got worries,All the noise and the hurrySeems to help, I know, downtownJust listen to the music of the traffic in the cityLinger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are prettyHow can you lose?The lights are much brighter thereYou can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares and goDowntown, things'll be great when you'reDowntown, no finer place for sure,Downtown, everything's waiting for you(Downtown)Don't hang aroundAnd let your problems surround youThere are movie shows downtownMaybe you knowSome little places to go toWhere they never close downtownJust listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossanovaYou'll be dancing with 'em too before the night is overHappy againThe lights are much brighter thereYou can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares and goDowntown 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 toGuide them alongSo, maybe I'll see you thereWe can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares and goDowntown, things'll be great when you'reDowntown, don't wait a minute more,Downtown, everything's waiting for youDowntown (downtown) downtown (downtown)Downtown (downtown) downtown (downtown)(repeat and fade out)
