Eliot Sumner - Come Friday Lyrics

Eliot Sumner – Come Friday Lyrics

Sometimes I think to check
Sometimes I wish to catch you out
At times I’ve been the worst
At times I’ve been the best of you.
And when you cry it’s always me:
I destroyed our hopes and dreams.
So I will try and I’ll succeed
To be the one that sees
Right through you.

Tears worth more than gold
I found comfort inside your soul.
When you don’t speak because you can’t
And I won’t weep, nor will I dance.
For England’s sake I will stay cold
And will not show this hate I’ve grown.
Look to my eyes for answers
You’ll be the one that sees
Right through me.

CHORUS:
So, come Friday, I’ll be distant!
So, come Friday, I’ll be found!
So, come Friday, we’ll be together!
So, come Friday, I’ll be down!

Draw two circles from a last resort
Draw me in to your passport.
Now that I have my hate and love for you
The memory distorts.
Have I found the formula
Of my mislead and misshaped fear?
While I congratulate your capturer
There’s a definitive defeat.

CHORUS:
So, come Friday, I’ll be distant!
So, come Friday, I’ll be found!
So, come Friday, we’ll be together!
So, come Friday, I’ll be down!

But I’m still holding on.
But I’m still home enough
That I can feel my sleep.
So silence my grave,
I was never here.
But I’m holding on,
You’re just holding off.

CHORUS:
So, come Friday, I’ll be distant!
So, come Friday, I’ll be found!
So, come Friday, we’ll be together!
So, come Friday, I’ll be down!

CHORUS:
Come Friday, I’ll be distant!
So, come Friday, I’ll be found!
Come Friday, we’ll be together!
Come Friday, I’ll be down!
