Let’s start…
I love living downtown, I enjoy the life of the city and all the possibilities offered. It’s been so many times that o caught myself just wondering around and just humming this Petula Clark theme…
When you’re alone, and life is making you lonely
You can always go Downtown
When you’ve got worries, all the noise and 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, and go
Downtown – things will be great when you’re
Downtown — you’ll find a 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 ‘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, and go
Downtown — where all the lights are bright
Downtown – waiting for you tonight
Downtown — you’re gonna be all right now…
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 I’ll see you there,
We can forget all our troubles; forget all our cares, and go
Downtown – things will be great when you’re
Downtown — don’t wait a minute more
Downtown — everything’s waiting for you…
A famous song from the ‘60’s that has been turned into an hymn for the joys of leaving in the city. Downtown is the place where anything can happen and anything can be discovered. I grew up in the center of Greece’s capital and I will always praise this chance that I’ve been given…
