Weekend
Retro Culture Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just looking for some fun,
On a friday night,
Never did we think it would get this deep.
Try to take it slow,
But where do you go,
When you can't decide?
And we'll play pretend,
Say that we're just friends,
Well here we go again,
Just going through the motions
Tell me where you're going tonight,
And maybe we could meet there
Maybe we could fall in love for the weekend.
When we wake up, it's back to friends,
Guess we were just playing pretend,
A little fun for the weekend.
How was I to know,
The way things would go,
When we collide,
Never did we think it would get this deep.
And I know that you said,
It's better if we just left it all behind,
But I don't wanna see the end of this.
The song Weekend by Retro Culture is a reflection on a fast-paced and intense romantic relationship that has left the singer in a state of confusion and uncertainty. The lyrics suggest that the singer and their partner had initially embarked on a simple weekend fling, but as their feelings for one another deepened, they found themselves struggling to define their relationship. The line "we'll play pretend, say that we're just friends, well here we go again, just going through the motions" captures the sense of resignation and frustration that the singer feels as they struggle to navigate the uncertain terrain of their romance.
Throughout the song, the singer expresses a sense of urgency and desperation, as they try to hold on to the fleeting moments of happiness that they have experienced with their partner. They seem to be grappling with conflicting emotions, torn between the desire to pursue a deeper relationship and the fear of being hurt or rejected. The line "tell me where you're going tonight, and maybe we could meet there, maybe we could fall in love for the weekend" highlights the singer's ambivalence, as they vacillate between hope and resignation.

We we're young,
We were in our youth,
Just looking for some fun,
We were only searching for amusement,
On a friday night,
It was a Friday evening,
Never did we think it would get this deep.
We never expected it to get so serious.
Try to take it slow,
We attempted to proceed cautiously,
But where do you go,
But where do you proceed,
When you can't decide?
When you can't make up your mind.
Cause I don't wanna see the end of this.
Because I don't want this to come to an end.
And we'll play pretend,
Let's act like it isn't real,
Say that we're just friends,
Claim that we're only friends,
Well here we go again,
We're in the same situation once more,
Just going through the motions
Just doing what we usually do.
Tell me where you're going tonight,
Inform me of your destination tonight,
And maybe we could meet there
And maybe we could meet up,
Maybe we could fall in love for the weekend.
Perhaps we could fall in love for the weekend.
When we wake up, it's back to friends,
When we get up, we return to being only friends,
Guess we were just playing pretend,
I suppose we were merely pretending.
A little fun for the weekend.
Just a little bit of entertainment for the weekend.
How was I to know,
How would I have known,
The way things would go,
What direction things would take,
When we collide,
When we cross paths,
Never did we think it would get this deep.
We never assumed it would become so profound.
And I know that you said,
And I understand that you uttered,
It's better if we just left it all behind,
It would be preferable if we just abandoned it all,
But I don't wanna see the end of this.
But I don't want it to finish.
