Song from the album 'The Velvet Underground'.
This one is sung by drummer Maureen Tucker (on the right in the photo)!
One, two, three
If you close the door, the night could last forever
Leave the sunshine out and say hello to never
All the people are dancing and they´re having such fun
I wish it could happen to me
But if you close the door, I´d never have to see the day again
If you close the door, the night could last forever
Leave the wine glass out and drink a toast to never
Oh, someday I know someone will look into my eyes
And say hello -you´re my very special one-
But if you close the door I´d never have to see the day again
Dark party bars
Shiny Cadillac cars
And the people on the subways and trains
Looking gray in the rain
As they stand disarrayed
Oh but people look well in the dark
And if you close the door the night could last forever
Leave the sunshine out and say hello to never
All the people are dancing and they´re having such fun
I wish it could happen to me
`Cause if you close the door I´d never have to see the day again,
I'd never have to see the day again, once more,
I´d never have to see the day again

Great song. Music doesn't need a complicated rhythm/melody or a ton of Instruments.
Is its pure and unique sound that make a piece of music an astonishing pleasure
Thanks, TVU

The 17 dislikes thing is my vision of what hell looks like. If you don't like this, then love is a long, long way off. Hope you have a better life later on.

The 8 people who disliked this song need to take a Music Appreciation class. Just saying.

I think this song is about just being that odd teenager who just spends their day in their room.
Just being lonely. It's much more "innocent and pure," as Lou Reed himself put it, then what everyone thinks because it's just about being a lonely teenager/person.
Just my thoughts.
