Weekend
Henrik Høven Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Never feel love never real love
When I′m caught up baby what's up
I was sure I was in control but no (no)
I was caught up, baby caught up
I won′t stop, never enough
You are on my mind when we're not together (together)
I want all or nothing
I admit I never thought of forever (never thought)
I want all or nothing with you
'Cuz I only wanted lovin′ on a weekend
Now I′m sleeping alone in my bed
You were all I wanted on a weekend
Now I'm needing, seven days instead
I get high on your love each time you go
On the ceiling, on the ceiling
What a feeling, what a feeling
Try to hide it but now I let it flow
When you′re leaving, when you're leaving
I′ll be bleeding, I'll be bleeding
You are on my mind when we′re not together (together)
Wish that we were something
I want all or nothing
I admit I never thought of forever (o-o-o-o)
I want all or nothing with you
'Cuz I only wanted lovin' on a weekend
Now I′m sleeping alone in my bed (alone in my bed)
You were all I wanted on a weekend
Now I′m needing, seven days instead
I miss you on a Monday (I miss you on a Monday)
I've been missing you all day (all day)
I miss you on a Monday (I miss you, I miss you)
I′ve been missing you all day (all day)
(I've been missing you
Every day of the weekend
Ooo, yea-a-ah)
′Cuz I only wanted lovin' on a weekend
Now I′m sleeping alone in my bed
You were all I wanted on a weekend
Now I'm needing, seven days instead
I miss you on a Monday (I miss you on a Monday)
I've been missing you all day (all day)
I miss you on a Monday (I miss you, I miss you)
I′ve been missing you all day (all day)
(No-o-o-o)
