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 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, and 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 Where they never close, Downtown Listen to the rhythm of the gentle bossa nova You'll be dancing with them to 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 Things'll be great when you're Downtown No finer place for sure Downtown Everything's waiting for you. Oh you might 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 No finer place for sure Downtown Everything's waiting for you.
