You wish you had the heart of a homeless soul Standing by the road with a heart of gold But you feel like a stone You're helplessly alone Gratitude spills from the poor man's eyes Picking up hopes that shine so bright But you feel in your bones that you're helplessly alone You wish you had the strength of a traveling man With the heaviest loads and heaviest plans It feels like a stone that you can't lift alone Following the river back to the sea Back to the sea where you long to be But the weight of your bones makes you helplessly alone You should go downtown Whenever you feel Feel the need to dance the streets You should go downtown Let time fall far behind and cut the leash And dance the streets I know that you can find the way downtown Where we dance in the streets, if we feel the need Let time fall behind and see what you'll find If you just follow the river back to the sea Just to see what you used to be Before the weight of your bones made you helplessly alone You should go downtown Whenever you feel Feel the need to dance the streets You should go downtown Let time fall far behind and cut the leash And dance the streets We should go downtown Whenever we feel Feel the need to dance the streets We should go downtown Let time fall far behind and cut the leash Let's dance the streets We should go downtown We should go downtown We should go downtown We should go downtown
