Weekend Excursion Lyrics

Verse 1:
I sit here, I sit by the phone
Oh I feel so lonely now that you're gone
Now that you're gone

Chorus:
I've been waiting here for so long
At least that's the way it seems
I think I can feel an eruption coming on,
I can feel an eruption coming on

Verse 2:
I'm so sick and tired of waiting here
Girl it's so depressing without you near
Without you near

Chorus:
Repeat

Verse 3:
I lie here
I'm lying on this lonely bed
Oh as visions of you explode inside my head
Inside my head

Chorus:
I've been waiting here for so long
At least that's the way it seems
I think I can feel an eruption coming on,
I've been waiting here for so long
At least that's the way it seems




I think I can feel an eruption coming on,
I can feel an eruption coming on
