Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Every time I look at you, have to do a double take
'Cause you're a kaleidoscope of Kristofferson, Bob Dylan and John Wayne
Been swallowed by suburbia, it's got nothing left to give and I
Think that we both know this isn't how we wanna live, oh no
[PreChorus]
And I've been dreamin'
And I need a change of scenery
[Chorus]
Take me downtown baby, hit the concrete
Pull me close and kiss in the street
Downtown baby, downtown baby
Only you can take me higher than high
I just wanna live till I die
Downtown baby, downtown baby
[Chorus]
Hey, aye, aye
Hey, aye, aye
[Verse 2]
I'm blinded by the buzzin' lights and adolescent appetites
I'm singing K-Pop karaoke, thanking God no one here knows me
Laughing on a late-night bus, nightmares and angel dust
And I look at you and you know what, there's no one here but us
[PreChorus]
I've got a feeling
You're feeling like I'm feeling
[Chorus]
Take me downtown baby, hit the concrete
Pull me close and kiss in the street
Downtown baby, downtown baby
Only you can take me higher than high
I just wanna live till I die
Downtown baby, downtown baby
[Chorus]
Hey aye, aye (Only you can take me higher)
Hey aye, aye
Hey aye, aye (Only you can take me higher)
Hey aye, aye
[Bridge]
I don't wanna wake up alone
We ain't got nowhere else to go
[Bridge]
So, let's go
[Bridge]
Only you can take me higher
[Chorus]
Downtown baby, hit the concrete
Pull me close and kiss in the street
Downtown baby, downtown baby
[Chorus]
Hey, aye, aye
Hey, aye, aye
Only you can take me higher (Hey, aye, aye)
Oh, woo-hoo, ooh-ooh-ooh (Hey, aye, aye)
