Wednesday Nights Lyrics
Darling, it’s alright
She said at the end of a fight
Don’t let the money and strain
Play us a fools again
For a while I tried
For a while I won
For a while I held your hand
In the setting sun
Honey, it’s ok
I said at the end of a day
We’ll find a place to go
Somewhere there’s no one we know
For a while I tried
For a while I won
For a while I held your hand
In the setting sun
For a while I tried
For a while I won
For a while I held your hand
In the setting sun
For a while I tried
For a while I won
For a while I held your hand
In the setting sun
For a while I tried
For a while I won
For a while I held your hand
In the setting sun
She said at the end of a fight
Don’t let the money and strain
Play us a fools again
For a while I won
For a while I held your hand
In the setting sun
I said at the end of a day
We’ll find a place to go
Somewhere there’s no one we know
For a while I won
For a while I held your hand
In the setting sun
For a while I won
For a while I held your hand
In the setting sun
For a while I won
For a while I held your hand
In the setting sun
For a while I won
For a while I held your hand
In the setting sun
