Beth Orton - Friday Night (Official Music Video)
“But I've been dreaming of Proust all in my bed And he speaks to me in my sleep And he takes me to the other side With his Madeleine and friends When the sea comes in It's hard to believe It'll ever go out again No, I'll never get too close I still hold you now and thenOn a Friday night On a Friday nightThere's a stillness left after you leave It'll speak of what has been And when I'm laying in the dark awake And I'm listening to the rain And our sorrow makes the city shine We never had to feel that pain But now those tears are prayers of empathy Gonna wash me clean againOn a Friday night On a Friday nightForgot that we had bones Forgot that we could feel Forgot that we'd wake up And it'd all be real It'd still be realWe've been waiting for the light to change We'd been waiting on a friend And the only choice that was left to us Was to bleed or rust in the rain Now the measure of your absence Is the presence that you leave And darling that's where we put all the love That we still have to giveOn a Friday night On a Friday night On a Friday night On a Friday nightForgot that I had bones Forgot that I could feel Forgot that we'd wake up And it'd still be realAnd it'd still be real”
