Well, the clock says it’s time to close
Now.
I guess I’d better go
Now.
I’d really like to stay here
All night.
The cars crawl past all stuffed with eyes.
Street lights share their hollow glow.
Your brain seems bruised with numb surprise.
Still one place to go.
Still one place to go.
Let me sleep all night
In your soul kitchen,
Warm my mind
Near your gentle stove.
Turn me out and I’ll wander, baby,
Stumblin’ in the neon groves.
Well, your fingers weave quick minuets,
Speak in secret alphabets.
I light another cigarette.
Learn to forget.
Learn to forget.
Learn to forget.
Learn to forget.
Let me sleep all night
In your soul kitchen,
Warm my mind
Near your gentle stove.
Turn me out and I’ll wander, baby,
Stumblin’ in the neon groves.
Well, the clock says it’s time to close
Now.
I know I’ll have to go
Now.
I really wanna stay here
All night.
All night.
All night.
