Closing Time Lyrics

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 'til your brothers or your sisters come
So gather up your jackets, move it to the exits
I hope you have found a friend

Closing time
Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end, yeah

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

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

What is the Meaning of Closing Time?

This track beautifully captures the bittersweet moments of endings and beginnings. While on the surface it seems to be about a bar closing for the night, there's a deeper metaphor at play here. The song is actually about life transitions, specifically moving from one stage to another. The phrase "closing time" represents an ending, but also suggests a new beginning - something that's echoed in the line "Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end." It encourages listeners to embrace change and move forward, even if it means leaving familiar places or people behind. This timeless anthem resonates with anyone who has ever faced significant changes in their life.
