Lyrics
Lights come on as evening grows
5pm it's time to close
Spark a chibe, release the load
Ease the mind til tomorrow
Cars in gridlock, rainy streets
I know a place where we can meet
Beneath the boardwalk, it's discreet
The lamps are dimmed and smiles are free
Conversations fill the air
fancy free without a care
No one notices the clothes
Makes no difference, young or old
Walls maintain the harmony
Blending with piano keys
Pictures hang of legends past
Reminding us how time flies fast
(Chorus) Stay awhile discover what you ought to know
I Don't need noone's sympathy, one lucky break would set me free...to shatter this monotony
(Solo)
(Chorus)
I don't have a wife(guy) to see
Noone's waiting home for me
When my daily work concludes
I'd like to have a drink or two
Happy Hour, the place to be
Enjoy the band and company
Happy Hour, second home
Half the price to be alone
