Closing Time Lyrics

[00:00.00]
[00:15.84] Closing time, open all the doors
[00:19.98] And let you out into the world
[00:26.15] Closing time, turn all of the lights on
[00:30.74] Over every boy and every girl
[00:36.50] Closing time, one last call for alcohol
[00:41.49] So, finish your whiskey or beer
[00:47.02] Closing time, you don't have to go home
[00:51.68] But you can't stay here
[00:57.55] I know who I want to take me home
[01:02.72] I know who I want to take me home
[01:07.91] I know who I want to take me home
[01:12.32] Take me home
[01:16.02]
[01:18.49] Closing time, time for you to go out
[01:23.07] To the places you will be from
[01:28.75] Closing time, this room won't be open
[01:33.44] Till your brothers or your sisters come
[01:38.71] So, gather up your jackets, move it to the exits
[01:44.05] I hope you have found a friend
[01:49.70] Closing time, every new beginning
[01:54.08] Comes from some other beginning's end, yeah
[02:00.06] I know who I want to take me home
[02:05.28] I know who I want to take me home
[02:10.54] I know who I want to take me home
[02:15.18] Take me home
[02:19.98]
[03:07.42] Closing time, time for you to go out
[03:11.95] To the places you will be from
[03:16.55]
[03:18.86] I know who I want to take me home
[03:23.91] I know who I want to take me home
[03:29.15] I know who I want to take me home
[03:33.65] Take me home
[03:39.63] I know who I want to take me home
[03:44.88] I know who I want to take me home
[03:49.94] I know who I want to take me home
[03:54.39] Take me home
[04:01.34]
[04:15.82] Closing time, every new beginning
[04:20.54] Comes from some other beginning's end
[04:22.38]
