Downtown
Tiziana Rivale Lyrics

When you're alone
If you are by yourself

and life is making you lonely
and you feel isolated and unhappy with your life situation

you can always go downtown
visiting the city could be a good way to lift your spirits

when you've got worries
when you are troubled or concerned about something

all the noise and the hurry
the sounds and activities of the busy city life

seems to help, I know, downtown
can help people forget their problems according to the singer

Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
Pay attention to the ambient soundscapes of urban traffic

linger on the sidewalk
walk slowly or stay a while on the side of the road

where the neon signs are pretty
in the place where illuminated signs and fluorescent colors are beautiful and mesmerizing

how can you lose
the singer suggests there is no way you can experience bad things in this environment

the lights are much brighter there
the city is lively and vibrant, the lights are more dazzling than anywhere else

you can forget all your troubles
the city has a powerful ability to help people relax and unwind, forget about their problems

forget all your cares
to ignore your worries or preoccupations momentarily

So go downtown
The singer is highly encouraging you to visit the inner city

things will be great when you're downtown
the singer believes every little thing will be perfect in the city

no finer place for sure, downtown
the singer really loves the place and is trying to convince the listener to feel the same

everything's waiting for you
everything you could desire is waiting for you in the city

Don't hang around
Avoid idling or lingering in unpleasant places

and let your problems surround you
and let all your difficulties encircle you

there are movie-shows downtown
the singer suggests there are some interesting films available in the city

maybe you know some little places to go to
perhaps you are aware of some secret hideouts in the city

where they never close downtown
there are some shops or clubs that are open all day in the city

Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossa-nova
listen to a lively and soothing Brazilian rhythm called bossa nova

you'll be dancing with them too
you will find yourself dancing alongside other people to the rhythm

before the night is over
It will happen during the present night

happy again, the lights are much brighter there
the city atmosphere can make people happy and excited

you can forget all your troubles
The city can help people let go of their problems temporarily

forget all your cares
let go of all worries and concerns

So go downtown
the singer is urging people to visit the city again

where all the lights are bright, downtown
downtown is full of shimmering lights and radiant energy

waiting for you tonight, downtown
downtown is inviting you to have a good time tonight

you're gonna be alright now, downtown
everyone who goes downtown is going to be happy and healthy according to the singer

And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you
the city may offer some people who are compassionate and supportive

someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to guide them along
Some people in the city are just like you and require a bit of guidance

so maybe I'll see you there
suggesting they may meet there

we can forget all our troubles
both of them can put their worries aside and enjoy the moment

forget all our cares
neither of them would think about anything negative or stressful
