[Intro] [Verse 1] Saturday night, and the streets are glowing But I’m in my room, with the curtains closing You said you might be out with friends Guess I’ll wait here till the silence ends [Pre-Chorus] I reach for the phone, then pull away What if you’ve nothing you want to say? Every minute stretches long Like the lyrics of a sad old song [Chorus] Saturday night, and I’m thinking of you Dancing through town in your worn-out shoes Laughing loud beneath the neon glow While I’m stuck in this shadow show In my dreams, we talk all night But I wake to the pale streetlight [Verse 2] Old records spin but they don’t console The glam rock ghosts can’t fill the hole I play our song just to feel you near But it fades like smoke, and you’re not here [Pre-Chorus] Should I have gone, should I have tried? Said what I feel instead of hiding inside But pride and fear, they’ve locked the door And I’m pacing holes into this floor [Chorus] Saturday night, and I’m thinking of you Wishing I said what I meant to do Are you holding hands I’ll never see? While my stereo sings your memory In my mind, we laugh till dawn But morning comes, and you’re still gone [Bridge] [Final Chorus] Saturday night, still dreaming of you Maybe next week I’ll see it through Maybe next time, I’ll leave this place And say what I’ve been scared to face Till then, it’s just me and this tune Alone beneath a wasted moon [Outro] Someday… you won’t be gone.
