Tony Hatch Lyrics - Petula Clark

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 

So 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 to 

Where they never close - downtown 

Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossa nova 

You'll be dancing with him 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 all right now 

[instrumental break] 

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
