Come Saturday - The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart

I can’t stand to see your picture

On the dresser where I left it

Another sunny day and you’re 80 miles away

Tuesday

But come Saturday, you’ll come to stay

You’ll come to sway in my arms

Who cares if there’s a party somewhere?

We’re gonna stay in

Come Saturday, you’ll come to say

Maybe there’s no harm

In a wasted summer with no drummer

We’re gonna stay in

I could stand to be a fixture

In your faded family picture

But I can’t see into the sunset

All I know is that you’re perfect right now

Come Saturday, you’ll come to stay

You’ll come to sway in my arms

Who cares if there’s a party somewhere?

We’re gonna stay in

Come Saturday, you’ll come to say

Maybe there’s no harm

In a wasted summer with no drummer

We’re gonna stay in

You don’t have to write at all, you don’t have to make a call

I know that you will come again and again

You don’t have to dress to please, perhaps undress for me

I know that when you come we’ll be staying in
