Lyrics
[verse]
When you're feeling low and the walls close in
Leave your worries hanging on the door
There's a place where all the lights begin
Where the crowded streets will lift you off the floor
The windows glow, the music never stops
The faces smile beneath the neon signs
Just walk along past all the little shops
And let the evening carry off your mind
[chorus]
Go where the lights are shining bright
Go where the city hums all night
Just leave the quiet rooms behind
Downtown is waiting, you will find
Downtown, everything's alright downtown
[verse]
The traffic hums a cheerful little song
The corner band is playing something sweet
Nobody minds if you don't come along
There's room for every stranger on the street
So powder up and put your best shoes on
Forget the troubles waiting back at home
By midnight all your worries will be gone
Among the lights you'll never feel alone
[chorus]
Go where the lights are shining bright
Go where the city hums all night
Just leave the quiet rooms behind
Downtown is waiting, you will find
Downtown, everything's alright downtown
[bridge]
Downtown, the buildings reach up to the stars
Downtown, forget the world and where you are
Just come along, the night is calling you
Downtown, downtown
[chorus]
Go where the lights are shining bright
Go where the city hums all night
Just leave the quiet rooms behind
Downtown is waiting, you will find
Downtown, everything's alright downtown
