Lost Weekend

Billy said goodbye, I’m only leaving for the weekend

But he never turned around to see the smiling faces

And as he left he thought it doesn’t take too much to make you smile

But he never doubted for a second that he’d miss them

Flying into space is like just any other weekend

Get yourself propelled with any fuel that’s for the taking

In between the trip and what you tell for the stories

All the details of your glory

I’m the one who’s leaving for the weekend

And yours will be the heart that I am breaking

And get yourself a rocketship you can find it within yourself

And have yourself a merry little weekend

Leaving just a trail of vapor here is all we’re seeing

Billy said he’s back if only just for a vacation

Climbing into cockpits like a plastic bubble

His submarine is in real trouble

It doesn’t bother him to know we miss him

In between the trip and what you tell for stories

All the details of your glory

I’m the one who’s leaving for the weekend

And yours will be the heart that I am breaking

And get yourself a rocketship you can find it within yourself

And have yourself a merry little weekend

Oh yeah, good bye

In between the tales for what you tell for stories

All the details all the glory

But I’m the one you’re leaving for the weekend

And yours will be the heart that I am breaking

So get yourself a rocketship you can find it within yourself

To have yourself a merry little weekend
