"The Weekend" lyrics
"The Weekend"
Oh, few things work out like you want 'em to
But just do your best, it's the best you can do
The sailboats are gliding to shore with the wind
Go out and stroll about and find a friend
Yeah the long week is gone - now the weekend's begun
Go down and check the tavern, you might find some fun
The girls from the high ridge are singing tonight
Hang out and drink some wine and feel all right
Does your heart tell the truth when you're lying?
Does your blues get you high when you're crying?
Ooh, ooh, now
Yeah, the telephone's ringing, but nobody's home
She's out for the ev'ning, but she's not out alone
Of course you could find her, but what'd be the use?
Hang out and drink some wine and just get juiced
Does your mind hit the groove when you're gleaming?
Does your life start to live while you're dreaming?
Ooh, ooh, now
The slow week is gone, now the weekend will run
Relax on a Sunday and soak up some sun
There ain't much of nothin' that's free anymore
But the sunshine's real fine and don't keep score
Do you think you could love one and only?
Does your blues get you off when you're lonely?
Ooh, ooh, now

Wheels don't turn as fast as they used to
Sometimes you take a right
Find out that it's wrong
Don't know the difference in a way
It ain't for now and then...

And you heard the guitar player starting to sing
You were filled with the beauty that ran
Through what you were imagining
Dreaming of scenes from those songs of love

Makes me want to lose myself
Makes me want to lose myself
In your arms
There's something in your voice
Makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts

We got preachers dealing in politics and diamond mines
And their speech is growing increasingly unkind
They say they are Christ's disciples
But they don't look...
