Well, the clock says it's time to close now
I guess I'd better go now
I'd really like to stay here all night
The cars crawl past all stuffed with eyes
Street lights share their hollow glow
Your brain seems bruised with numb surprise
Still one place to go
Still one place to go

Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen
Warm my mind near your gentle stove
Turn me out and I'll wander, baby
Stumblin' in the neon groves

Well, your fingers weave quick minarets
Speak in secret alphabets
I light another cigarette
Learn to forget, learn to forget
Learn to forget, learn to forget

Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen
Warm my mind near your gentle stove
Turn me out and I'll wander, baby
Stumblin' in the neon groves (yeah)

Well, the clock says it's time to close now
I know I have to go now
I really wanna stay here
All night, all night, all night

    well , man spending time with a woman , i believe he just feeling very good being with her he feels nice warm , compares her presense to soul kitchen , think kitchen , kitchen is the place where you can smell all flavour , its nice and warm there , in the house I use to love to go to the kitchen sitting there while mum was cooking , talking to her , watching her creating lovely food , smell nice flavours, yes we have nice feelings thinking 'kitchen' , but tehre is also other thought if jim was a junkie then it might b a 'kitchen' where was prepered drug , warming up spoon so on...prefer first interpretaion first is good;)
