Another Week
Azure Ray Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Go to work at eight
Come home for dinner
Time to celebrate
So I round up my friends
We made it through another week
We may not have much
But we've got what we need
So we go all night
Until I see his face
Then the party's over
This drink has no taste
He makes me lonely
When he comes around
I tried for years to beat this one down
I've got all my friends
Couldn't ask for more
But he makes me lonely
When he knocks on my door

I wake up each morning
Every day I get up early
Go to work at eight
I start work at 8am
Come home for dinner
I come back home for dinner
Time to celebrate
It's time to feel happy and celebrate
So I round up my friends
I gather my friends together
We made it through another week
We have managed to get through another week
We may not have much
We may not have a lot of things
But we've got what we need
But we have all that we require
So we go all night
Thus we party all night
Until I see his face
Unless I see him
Then the party's over
Then my celebration is over
This drink has no taste
I lose the taste for alcohol when I see him
He makes me lonely
He brings feelings of solitude in me
When he comes around
When he visits me
I tried for years to beat this one down
I have been striving for several years to overcome this feeling
I've got all my friends
I have all my friends with me
Couldn't ask for more
I don't need to ask for anything more
But he makes me lonely
However, he makes me feel alone
When he knocks on my door
When he comes to my home
