"Soul Kitchen" lyrics

"Soul Kitchen"
(originally by The Doors)

Well the clock says it's time to close now
I guess I better go now
I'd really like to stay here all night
The cars crawl past all stuffed with eyes
The streetlights share their hollow glow
Your brain seeps through 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 with your gentle snow
Turn me out in a wonder, baby
Stumbling in the neon glow

With your fingers we quicken our wrists
Speaking secret alphabet
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 with your gentle snow
Turn me out in a wonder, baby
Stumbling in the neon glow

Well the clock says it's time to close now
I know I have to go now
I'd really want to stay here all night
All night
All night
All night
