Swinging Doors Lyrics

This old smoke filled bar is something I'm not used to
I gave up my home to see you satisfied
I just called to let you know where I'll be living
It's not much but I feel welcome here, inside

I've got swinging doors, a jukebox and a barstool
My new home has a flashing neon sign
Stop by and see me anytime you want to
'Cause, I'm always here, at home, 'til closing time

I've got everything it takes to drive me crazy
And I've got everything it takes to lose my mind
And in here the atmosphere's just right for heartaches
Thanks to you I'm always here, 'til closing time

I've got swinging doors, a jukebox and a barstool
My new home has a flashing neon sign
Stop by and see me anytime you want to
'Cause I'm always here at home, 'til closing time...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
