Escrita por Lou Reed, foi gravada em novembro de 1968, em Holywood, California e lançada em março de 1969 no disco chamado apenas de The Velvet Underground. Maureen Tucker cantou porque Lou Reed disse que a canção era inocente e pura demais pra ele mesmo poder cantar. O estilo parece com o estilo Tin Pan Alley, dos anos 30 e só tem ela cantando, Lou Reed no violão e Doug Yule no baixo. Foi regravada pelo R.E.M., pelo Blind Melon, por Meg White, por Anthony Kiedis e por Eddie Vedder, entre outros artistas.
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 subways and
trains
Looking grey 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
