[Verse 1]
I didn’t need to be the best
All I needed was a little rest
Oh, sitting time
The nights are long when neon’s on
And two are better than one
Oh, closing time

[Verse 2]
I see the sign, see it in your eyes
In the window a part of me arrives
Oh, closing time
Can’t find the words, can’t find the way
Through all my effort I’ve erased the day
Oh, closing time

[Chorus]
Moonlight, try to read your mind
Didn’t want to wait till closing time
It’s alright, lay and wonder why
I wanna make a difference in your life
Oh, closing time

[Verse 3]
I couldn’t leave, I couldn’t tell you
That in my hands I want to make you move
Oh, closing time
I didn’t mean to walk the line
But if I had you maybe I’d be fine
Oh, closing time
[Chorus]
Moonlight, try to read your mind
Didn’t want to wait till closing time
It’s alright, lay and wonder why
I wanna make a difference in your life
Oh, closing time
