Weekends
Punchline Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lookin through my window,
up at you in your doorway,
I can't believe this is happening.
Every night we say goodbye,
and every night you almost cry,
but now it won't be every night,

I can see you on the weekends
but I'm not sure if that's enough,
And I pray we'll stay together,
but I dont think that we need luck.
Think of me when I am not arround..

If seeing is believing,
then I'm sure that this will work.
ICQ and AOL but it will sure be hard at first.
No more calling you real early just to hear your voice
Believe me that I love you,
but I have no other choice
I'll see you when I can
but it might be hard to get home.
I promise you christmas,
but the rest I just don't know.

Think of me when I am not around...
One more time losing my mind.
Here I go again
I'm sorry I could not be,
here for you all the time.

And then the last kiss goodbye,
you smile and wipe your tears away.
I know that this will be hard,




but we'll be fine
Call me at nine..

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Punchline's song Weekends depict the challenges and complexities of a long-distance relationship. The singer seems to be in a relationship with someone living in another place or city, which has made it difficult for them to meet each other regularly. The song begins with the singer admitting how surreal it feels to be in this situation while looking at their partner's doorway. They have been saying goodbye to each other every night, and every night, the partner almost cries during their parting, but now it won't be a daily routine.


The singer expresses uncertainty about whether seeing each other on weekends will suffice to maintain the relationship. They reveal their apprehension about the future of their relationship as well. They hope to stay together, but they don't think all they need is good luck. Hence, the distance is already affecting their relationship, and they fear that it might worsen with time. The singer promises to return home as often as possible, but it might not be feasible, leading to the uncertainty of meeting each other regularly.


The singer acknowledges the challenges of a long-distance relationship, such as fewer phone calls and video calls, and the fear of realizing that they are no longer together. The song ends with the last kiss goodbye, the partner wiping away their tears, and the singer assuring them that everything will be alright. Lastly, they ask their partner to call them at nine, possibly indicating a specific time they plan to talk to each other every day.

Lookin through my window,
Observing you from my window,


up at you in your doorway,
Seeing you standing at your front door,


I can't believe this is happening.
I am in disbelief that our relationship has come to this point.


Every night we say goodbye,
We bid farewell to each other every evening,


and every night you almost cry,
You are almost shedding tears during our nightly goodbyes,


but now it won't be every night,
But now we will not have to say goodbye every night.


I can see you on the weekends
I can only see you on weekends,


but I'm not sure if that's enough,
But I am uncertain if that is sufficient,


And I pray we'll stay together,
I am hoping that we can remain together,


but I dont think that we need luck.
But I do not believe all of our fate relies on luck.


Think of me when I am not around..
Please remember me when I am not nearby.


If seeing is believing,
If visual proof is required for confirmation,


then I'm sure that this will work.
I am optimistic that we will make this work.


ICQ and AOL but it will sure be hard at first.
Communicating using ICQ and AOL will be challenging initially.


No more calling you real early just to hear your voice

Here I go again
I am experiencing this again


I'm sorry I could not be,
I apologize for not being able to,


here for you all the time.
Be around for you all the time.


And then the last kiss goodbye,
And then we kissed our final farewell,


you smile and wipe your tears away.
You smiled and wiped your tears.


I know that this will be hard,
I am well-aware that this will be difficult,


but we'll be fine
But I believe we will be fine.


Call me at nine..
Make sure to give me a call at nine.

Used to have this track downloaded years ago but after a harddrive failure, a system wipe, and accidentally deleting the wrong files (not necessarily in that order at the same time, or even just once), I lost the files years ago. It's been really nice hearing them again!

I remember loving one of the songs and my sister pointed out that there were no words. The music was so good I didn't even notice. I can't find that track though.
