It ain't the stories that old jukebox tells It ain't callin' shots over eight ball felt Ain't how the neon shines through this smoke filled room Ain't hard to understand what keeps me on this stool It just ain't close enough to closing time For me to leave this bar And our love behind I know I'll close my tab With you off my mind It just ain't close enough to closing time It takes half a day and half a night To make half a man Feel half alright And when I hear last call I'll get to leave this place Oh but as it sits I still see your face It just ain't close enough to closing time For me to leave this bar And our love behind I know I'll close my tab With you off my mind It just ain't close enough to closing time Oh it just ain't close enough to closing time For me to leave this bar And our love behind I know I'll close my tab With you off my mind It just ain't close enough to closing time It ain't the stories that Old jukebox tells It ain't calling shots Over eight ball felt
