Buffalo Tom - Lost Weekend lyrics

Billy said goodbye, I'm only leaving for the weekend But he never turned around to see the smiling faces And as he left he thought it doesn't take too much to make you smile But he never doubted for a second that he'd miss them Flying into space is like just any other weekend Get yourself propelled with any fuel that's for the taking In between the trip and what you tell for the stories All the details of your glory I'm the one who's leaving for the weekend And yours will be the heart that I am breaking And get yourself a rocketship you can find it within yourself And have yourself a merry little weekend Leaving just a trail of vapor here is all we're seeing Billy said he's back if only just for a vacation Climbing into co*kpits like a plastic bubble His submarine is in real trouble It doesn't bother him to know we miss him In between the trip and what you tell for stories All the details of your glory I'm the one who's leaving for the weekend And yours will be the heart that I am breaking And get yourself a rocketship you can find it within yourself And have yourself a merry little weekend Oh yeah, good bye In between the tales for what you tell for stories All the details all the glory But I'm the one you're leaving for the weekend And yours will be the heart that I am breaking So get yourself a rocketship you can find it within yourself To have yourself a merry little weekend
