Downtown Lyrics by Petula Clark

Downtown Lyrics

    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)
    (repeat and fade out)
