(John Lodge)



Somewhere in the night

There's a heart that beats so fast

I can feel the heat

Of the fire in your eyes

BUrning like a naked flame

Waiting for the ice to break

Counting down the days

Waiting for the weekend



Lonely is the night

Silence is a friend to walk with

With no one else to talk to



CHORUS

But on Friday night

It's alright, it's alright

You can be who you want to be

Take off for the weekend

If you can dance you can dance with me

'Cos it's Friday night

It's alright, it's alright

Nothing's gonna stop me now

I'm all wired up and ready to go

I'm on my way

Let's get on with the show

Here comes the weekend

Here comes the weekend



Somewhere in the heat

There's a heart that beats so fast

I can hear your voice

Talk to me tonight

Taking on a different face

Every time I hear your name

I'm counting down the days

Waiting for the weekend



Lonely is the night

When all are sleeping

Silence is a friend you walk with

With no one else to talk to



CHORUS
