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
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
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
