Lyrics for After Hours (Closet Mix)

1, 2, 3 If you close the door, the night could last forever Leave the sun shine out and say, "Hello" to never All the people are dancing and they're havin' such fun I wish it could happen to me But if you close the door, I'd never have to see the day again If you close the door, the night could last forever Leave the wineglass out and drink a toast to never Oh, someday I know someone will look into my eyes And say, "Hello, you're my very special one" But if you close the door, I'd never have to see the day again Dark cloudy bars, shiny Cadillac cars And the people on subways and trains Looking grey in the rain as they stand disarrayed Oh the people will dwell in the dark And if you close the door, the night could last forever Leave the sun shine out and say, "Hello" to never All the people are dancing and they're having such fun I wish it could happen to me 'Cause if you close the door, I'd never have to see the day again I'd never have to see the day again Once more I'd never have to see the day again
