[Intro]
This is a song that, uh
I originally had figured on featuring myself doing it
With a, you know, spotlight and a golden nightdress
But then I figured, well, you know
I don't th-, I don't know if they're ready to accept that
So we, we got old Maureen out and figured
They'll believe her where they wouldn't believe me
Even though I always tell the truth
This will be our last song for the set
It's called "After Hours"

[Verse 1]
If you close the door
The night could last forever
Leave the sunshine out
And say hello to never
All the people are dancing and they're having such fun
I wish it could happen to me
But if you close the door
I'd never have to see the day again

[Verse 2]
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
[Bridge]
Dark party bars, shiny Cadillac cars
And the people on subways and trains
Looking gray in the rain as they stand disarrayed
Oh, but people look well in the dark

[Verse 3]
And If you close the door
The night could last forever
Leave the sunshine out
And say hello to never
All the people are dancing and they're having such fun
I wish it could happen to me
But if you close the door
I'd never have to see the day again
I'd never have to see the day again
I'd never have to see the day again

[Outro]
Thank you very much
