we were walkin downtown
my favorite part of town
[walking downtown]
we were walkin downtown
my favorite part of town
[walking downtown]

through the night
we were waiting
for a sign
maybe rendered in the darkened sky

drawn by
imaginary lines
connectig radiant points of light
[please don't go]

cuz you showed up
with your hair down
i might not sleep tonight

we were walkin downtown
my favorite part of town
[walking downtown]
we were walkin downtown
my favorite part of town
[walking downtown]

lift your gaze
from the pavement
from the streets
that we've crossed a thousand times before

dry your eyes
there are birds singing on lamp posts
they don't know what all your crying's for
[please don't go]

and i'm sure
that i've not seen
the christmas lights this bright before

we were walking downtown
my favorite part of town
[walking downtown]
