Well the clock said it time to close now I guess we'd better go now But I'd really like to stay here all night The cars crawl past all stuffed with eyes Street lights share their hollow glow Your brain seemed bruised with numb surprise Still one place to go Still one place to go Let me sleep all night In your soul kitchen Warm my mind near your gentle stove Turn me out, wander baby Stumblin' in the neon groves Well your fingers weave quick minuets Speak in secret alphabets I light another cigarette Learn to forget Learn to forget Learn to forget Learn to forget Let me sleep all night In your soul kitchen Warm my mind near your gentle stove Turn me out and I'll wander baby Stumblin' in the neon groves, yeah! Your fingers weave quick minuets Speak in secret alphabets I light another cigarette Learn to forget Learn to forget Learn to forget Learn to forget Let me sleep all night In your soul kitchen Warm my mind near your gentle stove Turn me out and I'll wander baby Stumblin' in the neon- The cop said it time to close now I know I'll have to go now Really wanna stay here all night All night All night Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright Thank you, thank you very much! Thank you very much for coming, goodnight All you people here tonight can go downstairs And attend the Rockfest, free of charge See the head shops, the light show, and take the trip No charge at all, just get down here as you walk out the door Go down the escalators, so we'll see y'all downstairs Thank you very much

Verse I remember Saturdays helping mama in the kitchen/ Conversations frying baking and passing down her wisdom/ She said baby girl you're a queen and this is how you should be treated/ Words she washed with tears and planted in my soul Chorus Can we just go back to the simple kind of livin'/ Can we go back and maybe start from the beginnin'/ Back to better days when love was for the givin'/ Can we just go back to the way we were Verse Mama said there was time when brothers were each others keeper/ Sisters held each other close till there was nothing left between them,/ Back when a song was a song you could sing along didnt matter how long/ Just As long as it spoke to ya Do You know what i mean Chorus Can we just go back to the simple kind of livin'/ Can we go back and maybe start from the beginnin'/ Back to better days when love was for the givin'/ Can we just go back to the way we were Bridge OOO,/ now im chasing rainbows and dreams/ trying hard to believe/ This is how it should be/ Yesterday was Yesterday, tomorrow's just a day away/ By then it may be to late, maybe we can start today. CHORUS [twice] Can we just go back to the simple kind of livin'/ Can we go back and maybe start from the beginnin'/ Back to better days when love was for the givin'/ Can we just go back to the way we were
