HIVE OPEN MIC 156 / Closing Time Cover

Nostalgia.

‘Closing Time’ by Semisonic brought back memories of my University/College days. Oh yes, I'm definitely a 90's baby. LOL

When I think back to those times, I can't help but laugh, tear a bit, and smile because those were the times when I made friends who I eventually lost as we went on with our lives. Strangely, despite how close you once were, it ends up differently somehow. But yes, I suppose that's how friendships and life work together.

“Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end.”

The line in this song that I love the most.
Indeed, one journey ends and a new one begins; the cycle never ends.
What you do and how you do it to get better, of course, depends on who else but yourself. Such a great message.

Lyrics

Closing time, open all the doors
And let you out into the world
Closing time, turn all of the lights on
Over every boy and every girl
Closing time, one last call for alcohol
So, finish your whiskey or beer
Closing time, you don't have to go home
But you can't stay here

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

Closing time, time for you to go out
To the places you will be from
Closing time, this room won't be open
Till your brothers or your sisters come
So, gather up your jackets, move it to the exits
I hope you have found a friend
Closing time, every new beginning
Comes from some other beginning's end, yeah
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

Closing time, time for you to go out
To the places you will be from
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

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

Closing time, every new beginning
Comes from some other beginning's end
