Sandie Shaw 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)
