Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tonight, I think I'm gonna go downtown
Tonight, I think I'm gonna look around
For something I couldn't see
When this world was more real to me
Yeah, tonight
I think I'm gonna go downtown
[Verse 2]
My love
My love has gone away
My love
My love, what can I say?
My love would never see
This world's just not real to me
And tonight, I think I'm gonna go downtown
[Verse 3]
I told my love a thousand times
That I can't say what's on my mind
But she would never see
That this world's just not real to me
And tonight, I think I'm gonna go downtown
[Verse 4]
Tonight, I think I'm gonna go downtown
Tonight, I think I'm gonna look around
For something I couldn't see
When this world was more real to me
Yeah, tonight
I think I'm gonna go downtown
Tonight, I think I'm gonna go downtown
