Petula Clark: Downtown (1964), a pop song composed by Tony Hatch which, as recorded by Miss Clark in 1964, became an international hit, reaching No. 1 in Billboard Hot 100 and No. 2 in UK Singles Chart. Hatch received the 1981 Ivor Novello award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically. Lyrics When youre alone and life is making you lonely You can always go - downtown. When youve 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 will be great when youre downtown No finer place for sure downtown Everythings waiting for you. Dont 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 Youll 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 so go - downtown Where all the lights are bright downtown waiting for you tonight downtown youre gonna be alright now 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 Ill see you there we can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares so go downtown Things will be great when youre downtown dont wait a minute more downtown Everything is waiting for you downtown downtown downtown downtown downtown downtown downtown...
