It's closing time

I'm swept out of this town

The last sunset light

Paints everything gold

A long hard day

Is going to end

A race with time

I'm about to lose

And I'm headed for home

I know you'll be there

Opening my eyes

To save your sadness, save your sadness

When I'm down you help me

Back up on my feet

And you're telling me

To save your sadness, save your sadness

For the bad times

In this roundabout

I'll never come to any end

When the pulse of my life's

Like a drum inside my head

You drown this out

With what is real

And make me see

The light again
