Downtown (From The Runarounds Original Series)

My friends are leaving me in the dust

They didn't know how much it meant to me

Have mamas saying I look rough

She don't know what's right or wrong for me

Soon the kids will move along

Forget the words to all our songs

Just a name that lives within a thought that reaches dawn

Maybe many years from now you'll hear that groaning from the South

Couple Carolina kids, washed up songs will

Come around

Come on

If you don't want to stay out tonight

You know that I'll ride home with you

Growing disdain for the downtown lights

Oh, I'm starting to feel it too

I'll stick with you through the changes daily

Even when your layers peel

Cause with you my heart's been racing

Maybe this is how I'm supposed to feel

With you everything's all right

With you an empty bar's the perfect night

And I want it bad, what I already have

With you it's good to be alive

My friends are leaving me in the dust

They didn't know how much it meant to me

(They don't know)

Have mamas saying I look rough (I look rough)

She don't know what's right or wrong for me

(She don't know, she don't know)

If you don't want to stay out tonight

You know that I'll ride home with you

With you everything's all right

With you an empty bar's the perfect night

And I want it bad, what I already have

With you it's good to be alive
