Somewhere in the night there's a heart that beats so fast   I can feel the heat of the fire in your eyes   Burning like a naked flame, waiting for the ice to break   Counting down the days, waiting for the weekend      Lonely is the night, silence is a friend   To wake with, with no one else to talk to      But on a Friday night, it's alright, it's alright   You can be who you want to be   Take off for the weekend, if you can dance   You can dance with me 'cause it's Friday night      It's alright, it's alright, nothing's gonna stop me now   I'm all wired up and ready to go   I'm on my way, let's get on with the show   Here comes the weekend, here comes the weekend      Somewhere in the heat there's a heart that beats so fast   I can hear your voice, talk to me tonight   Taking a different face, every time I hear your name   I'm counting down the days, waiting for the weekend      Lonely is the night, when all are sleeping   Silence is a friend you walk with, with no one else to talk to      But on a Friday night, it's alright, it's alright   You can be who you want to be, take of for the weekend   If you dance you can, dance with me   'Cause it's Friday night, it's alright, it's alright      Nothing's gonna stop me now, I'm all wired up   And ready to go and I'm on my way   It's the weekend and it's starting today   Here comes the weekend, here comes the weekend
