So I call your name, cross my fingers
Uncross the others, hesitate
I don't think straight with nothing to prove
I don't wanna say I'm leaving
I'll stay until the weekend
And you can take all the things
The boxes and rings and get going
'Cause I've been waiting for
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
Let it be and come to me with the look in your eyes
Will you break and take all the worlds from my mouth?
I wish all the pretty girls were shaking me down
So I call you out
Just to feel a little better about myself
(He does) And I do, baby I do.
Till their lips start to move
And their friends wanna talk music
I say "I've never heard the tune!"
But I have, I just hate the band
'Cause they remind me of you
Every single night ends up the same
I don't say much at all, but I bring up your name
[(Over and over and over)]
I think it's striking me out
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
Let it be and come with me with the look in your eyes
Will you break and take all the words from my mouth?
I wish all the pretty girls were shaking me down
But not you, you still wear boots and your hair is too long
And then this one doesn't want to admit she's falling in love
Oh c'mon, oh c'mon, what's a boy to do
When all the pretty girls can't measure to you?
I don't understand your reasons
Please just stay over the weekend
You can't take all those things they define you and me
everything we've become, you're all that I need
Please don't make me face my generation alone
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
Let it be and come with me with the look in your eyes
Will you break and take all the words from my mouth?
I wish all the pretty girls were shaking me down
But not you, I feel your faith is destroying the world
And then this one never really understood the 80s is over and done
Oh c'mon, what's a boy to do
When all the pretty girls can't measure to you?
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
