        A#        G7
If you close the door
    Cm                  F
The night could last forever
           A#       G7
Leave the sunshine out
     Cm           F
And say hello to never
        A#                             A#7
All the people are dancing and they're having such fun
   D#                     D#m
I wish it could happen to me
            A#        G7
But if you close the door
     Cm            F           A#
I'd never have to see the day again

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

Chorus:
Dm
Dark party bars
       A
Shiny Cadillac cars
         Dm        A           Dm   G#
And the people on subways and trains
G
Looking gray in the rain
         G7
As they stand disarrayed
         Cm                      F
Oh, but people look well in the dark

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
'Cause if you close the door
I'd never have to see the day again

    Cm             F           A#          G7
I'd never have to see the day again, once more
    Cm             F           A#
I'd never have to see the day again
