| Eagles – Saturday Night Lyrics | 8 years ago |
|
I'm adding a feminine perspective, as I think all previous comments were from guys (and absolutely helped me understand lyrics better.) First and Second Stanza about beautiful and innocent love and loving--he's happy, so is she and she wants to make sure he feels good. She's part of what he loves about Saturday, the best day and night of his week, particularly making love with her. Third Stanza: They're married, and he hates the changes in his life; particularly the loss of freedom and self-expression ("Saturday night"). They divorce, she marries another and he "pass(es) the time with (his) pride" Fourth Stanza: He's alone, and wonders whether it was marriage ("the dance") or the woman he married ("the dancer") that was killed his spirit Fifth Stanza: She still cares about him. He still wants what he had when he had "Saturday night" and had her. |
