Fridays waiting at the gates of heaven / The weekend starts at seven
We get forty-eight hours of fun

For five days working on the line / For five days
Time to change the look on my face / I'm waiting for the starter's gun

Maybe feeling tired / Maybe feeling empty / Maybe living on your own

You know 'round about seven on a / Friday night
Forget about your worries gonna / Be alright
Everybody's heading for those days / Of light
Hot and heavy nights of true love ways
Tomorrow these will be the good / Old days
Everybody's working for those days / Of light

Mondays waiting for the week to / Start up
Back to work and feeling hard up / Things are gonna change someday

So dream on everybody's free to / Dream on
Work hard love well live long / There's really not a better way

So live it all you can / Even when it hurts you
Got to give it all you've got / And know

Everybody's putting on a braver face
Everyone's running in the same race
Everybody's working for those days / Of light
Everyone's looking for the same release
Everybody's hoping for a mind of peace
Everyone's working for those days / Of light

'Round about seven on a Friday night
Forget about your worries gonna be alright
Everybody's working for those days of light
Hot and heavy nights of true love ways
Tomorrow these will be the good / Old days
Everybody's heading for those days / Of light
Everybody's putting on a braver face
We're all running in the same race
Everybody's working, got to keep on
Working for those / Days of light
