Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It must be closing time in California
They must be shuttin' down the Sunset bars
That's the only time that I hear from ya
Before my world lights up and yours goes dark
[Verse 2]
And there's a western wave that called you out there
There's a southern voice that wants you back
Can almost smell the smoke and cheap tequila
While I'm about to pour my coffee, black
[Chorus]
I've been trying to forget
And you've been trying not to miss
Me and move on
It must be closing time in California
Baby, cut me off or come back home
[Verse 3]
There's a ghost that dances in the driveway
In a dress that hit this hard pine floor
Bet you're still in heels in your bed, sideways
Wishin' I was there to keep you warm
Damn, I wish that I was too, good Lord
[Chorus]
I've been trying to forget
You've been trying not to miss
Me and move on
It must be closing time in California
Baby, cut me off or come back home
Come back home
Come back home
Yeah, yeah
[Bridge]
I guess we never got the timin' right
Yeah, it's 3 on your wall, and 5 on mine
[Chorus]
It must be closing time in California
If what you went to find just ain't out there
Then it's closing time in California
And baby, Tennessee ain't gone nowhere
