Closing Time
©1997 Pauline Trabert, All Rights Reserved

I've been sitting here drinking for hours talking to people I can hardly see
We've been solving all the world's problems and spending all of our money
My pile of cash is getting low, I’m nearly down to my last dime
Now it's getting very late, it's almost Closing Time

It's nigh on to Closing Time and there's nowhere else to go
Just home to that empty place that only lonely people know
Every body's heading out the door I was hoping I would find
Somebody looking for someone like me at Closing Time

The bell rings for last call and everybody starts slamming them down
Heading out the door I can hear those Harley's roaring back into town
And I was hoping to find someone special, being lonely is no crime
Now it's getting very late, it's almost Closing Time

It looks like no one else is alone here but me
Oh what I wouldn't give for some warm company

It's nigh on to Closing Time and there's nowhere else to go
Just home to that empty place that only lonely people know
Every body's heading out the door I was hoping I would find
Somebody looking for someone like me at Closing Time

It's nigh on to Closing Time and there's nowhere else to go
Just home to that empty place that only lonely people know
Every body's headed out the door I was hoping I would find
Somebody looking for someone like me at Closing Time
Are you looking for someone like me at Closing Time
