THE DOWNTOWN LIGHTS Lyrics

(Paul Buchanan)

Sometimes I walk away 

When all I really wanna do 

Is love and hold you right 

There is just one thing I can say 

It's all right, can't you see 

The downtown lights 

In love we're all the same 

We're walking down an empty street 

And with nobody callin' your name 

Empty streets, empty nights 

The downtown lights 

*How do I know you feel it 

How do I know you feel it 

How do I know you feel it 

How do I know it's true 

Can't you see 

Nobody loves you this way 

It's all right 

Tonight and every night 

Let's go walking down the city streets 

Let's walk in the cool evening light 

Wrong or right, the endless sight 

The downtown lights 

It will be all right 

It will be all right 

The downtown lights 

Yeah, yeah, yeah 

(*Repeat) 

Yeah, yeah, yeah 

Downtown lights 

The neons and the cigarettes 

The rented rooms and rented cars 

The crowded streets, the empty bars 

Chimneytops, trumpets 

The golden lights, the loving prayers 

Colored shoes, the empty trains 

I'm tired of cryin' on the stairs 

Downtown lights 

It'll be all right 

It'll be all right
