"I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
Take me home..."
You sang and stared,
through shades so dark
yet still I saw
you were staring at me.
jumping around, dancing like a fool
I could tell
you would never admit it
but you wanted me to take you home.
But you know I can't,
you know I won't
you know I love another
and you can never have me
and I pray you always remember
those last few words of that song
you sang as you rocked with your band
wanting me so bad, but knowing you can't have me.
"Closing time-
Every new beginning comes from some other beginnings end..."
You said goodnight, praising to the crowd
knowing you'd never see me again
the girl in the front row
who you used and abused
I've gone to new beginnings
you were just another beginning
that had to end too soon
another beginning, which never began...
Author notes
Just something that came to me. I love Semisonics song "Closing Time" I love it I love it I love it.
(I erased my notes, b/c it may give an ex-friend some...Ammunition to use against me, b/c I know she hates me for this one thing, and she doesn't want me to be happy, me-thinks.)

pretty good! got a little repetative with the second time of saying "you can't have me" right before the second set of quotes. I do like it though, and deffinatly love that song =) Good job and good luck!
