Lennox, Annie - Downtown Lights Lyrics






Sometimes I walk away
When all I really wanna do
Is love and hold you right
There is just one thing I can say
Nobody loves you this way
It's all right, can't you see
The downtown lights

In love we're all the same
We're walking down an empty street
And with nobody comin' on me
Empty street, empty night
The downtown lights

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
Yea...
It's alright

Tonight and every night
Let's go walking down this empty street
Let's walk in the cool evening night
Wrong or right, be at my side
The downtown lights...
It will be all right
It will be all right
The downtown lights

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
It's alright
It's alright
The downtown lights
Yea yea

Neons, every cigarettes
The rented rose and rented cars
The crowded streets, the empty bars
Chimneytops, the trumpets
The golden lights, the loving prayers
Colored shoes, the empty trains
I'm tired of crying on the stairs
The downtown lights

Lennox, Annie Downtown Lights Comments
  1. S.... C....

    One of my favourite ever songs. I visit Iceland twice a year and love to play this driving home through the darkness - don't know why, just feels right. Love it so much.

  2. J.... L....

    I've felt like I want to walk down the aisle to this song to get married.

  3. S.... B....

    It's snowing. And you listen to this.

  4. K.... W....

    I have both versions of this wonderful song. Annie does such an amazing job with this cover. I have both on my iPod for work, and every now and then it plays both versions back to back, I love those moments it send me into raptures.

  5. J.... C....

    I saw them Hells Kitchen the time

  6. R.... K....

  7. M.... M....

    Best cover of the this Blue Niles-song, I dare say it is as good as the original song... Annie Lennox... you must have been born singing :-)) Love your songs as a solo-artist as well as your Eurythmic-songs. Woman, how I have danced on your songs, they touch the soul. Thanks again for this beatiful cover!

  8. J.... C....

    Just stunning

  9. U.... ....

    Better arranged than Rod Stewart's cover. The melody sends goosebumps up and down my spine like the original did back in '89. I miss the bagpipes though :)

  10. S.... L....

    listen to this music, while walking through Tokyo is just amazing

  11. M.... ....

    Paul Buchanan and Annie are friends he helped write and produce her Diva album. But it doesn't compare to The Blue Nile! Rod Stewart's version is total crap!!! I don't know how Pail Buchanan ever allowed him to cover it!

    M.... ....

    Sir Rod's voice isn't what it was.

  23. g.... f....

    A cracking cover of Paul Buchanan's (The Blue Nile) original masterpiece. Great stuff.....

  25. L.... S....

    Well done!

  26. R.... T....

    Is it me or does the intro to this sound very similar to Suzanne Vega's 'Tom's Diner' song?

  27. p.... ....

    Be at my side, the dowtown lights.

  28. M.... M....

    Paul Buchanan of the "Blue Nile" wrote this song, she did her Medusa album which is nothing but cover songs. Pure brilliant.
