Lyrics

"Monday Morning Blues"

Had a lovely time last Sunday, not a care, just loving you.
We became as one on Saturday, it was clear our love would see us through.
Now once again it's Monday, and I'm far away from you.
And once again I've got these Monday morning blues.

Had to travel far to find work, had to move away from you.
Had to find a way to pay my bills, had to find it without losing you.
Weekends are the only time I have to spend with you,
And make up for these week-long Monday morning blues.

It's the economy that's rearranged our lives,
It's not like I'm trying to replace you.
If I could be there I'd be with you all the time.
We?d never have to face these Monday morning blues.

I didn?t make this situation. I?m just one link in a chain
In a tug-of-war that's being employed versus dealing with the pain.
No one's going to care how loud I scream "I love you",
They've got to deal with their own Monday morning blues.
There?s nothing they can do ?bout Monday morning blues.
God, I hate these mean old Monday morning blues.

I wake up hating life on Monday,
Tuesday's just a Monday in disguise.
Had my fill of work by Wednesday.
By Thursday afternoon my spirits rise.
'Cause on Friday night there?s gonna be a party,
Just you and me and love?s sweet exercise.
