lyrics

Text me a photo show me where you’re sittin’.
I wanna picture you making your livin’.
Tell me all about what you’re thinkin’ and feelin’.
Gotta get it all now I can’t wait for the weekend.

Cuz when the weekend comes, we lose our voices.
Bodies take over and do all the talkin’.
How the light changed and blurred the lines
between where I begin and where you end.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
I can’t wait for the weekend.

Wednesday rolls around got me doubtin’ and dreamin’.
Are you real or not, but your sweet texts reveal it.
Checkin’ my phone every ten or twenty
just to kiss you on the face. All this waiting’s got me reelin’.

Cuz when the weekend comes, we lose our voices.
Bodies take over and do all the talkin’.
How the light changed and blurred the lines
between where I begin and where you end.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
I can’t wait for the weekend.
When you come over, let’s slow dance.
When you come over, let’s forget about,
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
I can’t wait for the weekend.
