Afterhours
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Would you close the door
and night can last forever
Leave the sun shut out
And make a toast to never
All the people are dancing
and they are having such fun
and i wish it could happen to me
but if you close the door
I'd never have to see the day again
And if you close the door
The night could last forever
Leave your wine glass out
And make a toast to never
Well someday I know someones
going to look into my eyes
and say "hello your my very special one"
But if you close the door
I never have to see the day again
These dark dark bars and shiny cadillac cars
and streets filled with subways and trains
Looking gray in the rain as the standards of raid
and the people look nice in the dark
And if you close the door
The night could last forever
Leave the sunshine out
And make a toast to never
All the people are dancing
And theyre having such fun
I just wish it would happen to me
But if you close the door
I might never have to see the day again
That's right I might never have to see the day again
