Downtown

Meet me tonight, come on downtown Let’s dance through the alleys on the sacred ground

And relight the fire, come on downtown Got one chance left to turn it all around

I’ve been thinking ‘bout you baby and what we might have been

And I wonder what’s yet to come

I’ve been longing for your beauty And grasping rainbows Praying your love is not all gone

I’ve been sleeping around with strangers I’ve been slaying my time

and I’ve been leaving everybody behind

I’ve been dancing along with danger and wrestling with slime But this time I’ve been blind

So meet me tonight come on downtown Let’s dance through the alleys on the sacred ground

And relight the fire come on downtown Got one chance left to turn it all around

So last night I took a walk past our old house Though I know you’re not there anymore

Well you found something better somewhere else

And you’re happy, that I’m sure

But I swear to you baby that tonight I had a dream

Where you were standing next to me

And you whispered in my ear 'The fact that we’re not together is a crime against humanity'

So, meet me tonight, come on downtown Let’s dance through the alleys on the sacred ground

And relight the fire, come on downtown Got one chance left to turn it all around

We’re fools with grace on a sacred night And this time baby I’ll be all right

Where the neon cuts the eye in a magic rite And the battle is won in the morning light

I just keep pretending that we’re downtown I’ll be your secret lover on the edge of town

If you ever change your mind or if you haven’t found What you were looking for so just come on down

So meet me tonight come on downtown Yeah meet me tonight come on downtown
