Every afternoon at five o`clock I forget all about you There ain`t nothin` `bout this honky-tonk To remind me we`re through And I can put off going back To that ol` empty house you swore you`d never leave From the loneliness you handed me I can get a brief reprieve From here until closing time It won`t matter you`re gone I can fill up my emptiness Maybe make it on my own From now til they lock the doors Put the chairs up and sweep the floors You won`t even cross my mind From here until closing time Well the good old days are good and gone Since you left without me If I could figure out where we went wrong Then maybe I`d be free From these ties that bind my foolish heart And just won`t let me start my life again Then I wouldn`t need this lonesome bar Where I come to pretend From here until closing time It won`t matter you`re gone Your memory won`t break my heart I can make it on my own From now til they lock the doors Put the chairs up and sweep the floors You won`t even cross my mind From here until closing time Every afternoon at five o`clock I forget all about you
