It's gonna be a good night
And I'm not the type to ever waste it
Don't know where city lights may take me, but I know
It's gonna be a good night
Yeah, all the memories I've been holdin'
I'm gonna drink 'em down 'til closin', oh, I know

I know this drink won't take me home
It won't place me on that road
I'll get lost downtown 'til the break of dawn
Singin' in the bars 'til the lights come on
If I don't come home tonight
I'm somewhere close to Heaven

Oh, I go, oh, I go
It's somewhere close to Heaven
To my end or my friends
Somewhere close-

Gonna be a good night
Even if we never remember
We're gonna make it last forever, oh, I know
It's gonna be a good night
With good highs and good fights and goodbyes, yeah
Oh, you know it's a good life

I know this drink won't take me home
It won't place me on that road
I'll get lost downtown 'til the break of dawn
Singin' in the bars 'til the lights come on
If I don't come home tonight
I'm somewhere close to Heaven

Oh, I go, oh, I go
It's somewhere close to Heaven
To my end or my friends
It's somewhere close to Heaven

Somewhere close to Heaven
Somewhere close to Heaven
(Close) to Heaven, to Heaven
(Close) to Heaven

I'll get lost downtown 'til the break of dawn
Singin' in the bars 'til the lights come on
If I don't come home tonight
I'm somewhere close to Heaven

Oh, I go, oh, I go
It's somewhere close to Heaven
To my end or my friends
It's somewhere close to Heaven
(Close) it's somewhere close to Heaven
(Close) it's somewhere close to Heaven
