The Weekend
Steve Wariner
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Couple of days isn't a very long time Why can't I just walk away, I used to be good at goodbyes, Out on the water, under the stars, I let the moonlight play a trick on my heart [Chorus:] You had some fun for the weekend But I'll be in love for the rest of my life You took me out to the deep end And I fell right over I didn't think twice I found got something worth keeping And if I can't have you tonight, At least I had the weekend The radio plays the sound of the waves rolling in The smell of the night sure can get under your skin Just for a moment, I held you too close Now I'm all out of time and I don't want to let go [Chorus] How much can happen in a night or two? I guess its all depending on your point of view You had some fun for the weekend (girl) But I'll be in love for the rest of my life You took me out to the deep end And I fell right over I didn't think twice Finally got something worth keeping And if I can't have you tonight At least I had the weekend
