[Verse 1]
Sometimes I walk away
When all I really wanna do
Is love and hold you right
There is just one thing I can say

[Pre-Chorus]
It's all right, can't you see
The downtown lights

[Verse 2]
In love we're all the same
We're walking down an empty street
And with nobody callin' your name

[Pre-Chorus]
Empty streets, empty nights
The downtown lights

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
The downtown lights
It will be all right
It will be all right
The downtown lights
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
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
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Downtown lights

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
The neons and the cigarettes
The rented rooms and rented cars
The crowded streets, the empty bars
Chimney tops, trumpets
The golden lights, the loving prayers
Colored shoes, the empty trains
I'm tired of cryin' on the stairs
Downtown lights

[Chorus]
It'll be all right
It'll be all right
