Lyrics

Closing Time

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.

Closing time, open all the doors

And let you out into the world

Closing time, turn all of the lights on

Over every boy and every girl

Closing time, one last call for alcohol

So finish your whiskey or beer

Closing time, you don't have to go home

But you can't stay here

I know who I want to take me home

I know who I want to take me home

I know who I want to take me home

Take me home

Closing time, time for you to go out

To the places you will be from

Closing time, this room won't be open

Till your brothers or your sisters come

So gather up your jackets, move into the exits

I hope you have found a friend

Closing time, every new beginning

Comes from some other beginning's end

I know who I want to take me home

I know who I want to take me home

I know who I want to take me home

Take me home

Closing time, time for you to go out

To the places you will be from

I know who I want to take me home

I know who I want to take me home

I know who I want to take me home

Take me home

Closing time, every new beginning

Comes from some other beginning's end
