The Jeevas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's a deep blue Friday afternoon
I wish I was going home to you
I'd say: how was your day?
what shall we do tomorrow?
but I'm so far away
feeling the pain
on a dark grey, quiet Saturday
all of my dreams are for you
I just might leave this all behind
all of this blind disfortune
cause I'm so far away
feeling the pain
cause I don't know why we run
I just wish you would come,
just wish you'd come back home
back into my arms, back to the place where they love you
it's a deep blue, Friday afternoon
I wish I was going home to you




back home, back into your arms
back to the place I remember, I remember...
