lyrics

I spent Monday on Strawberry Hill
Till I fell and I landed on your windowsill
I hung there by a golden fine web
I had woven, from a hair of your head

I spent Tuesday just walking through town
Till I saw a gold angel come tumbling down
And waltzing with seagulls up in an elm tree
Where the wind runs her fingers above the dark Lee

And oh will you meet me on Saturday night?
We’ll dance in the shadows between the street lights
Between these two rivers I know where we’ll meet
On Prince’s Street

I spent Wednesday doing nothing at all
Till late in the evening the wind came to call
And stood at my window and danced a handstand
The sun on her shoulder and birds in her hands

The next morning I woke from a dream
Of where the fish lie on their beds of deep green
I watched Thursday morning put on it’s new coat
Of cloud at the elbow, blue sky at the throat

And oh will you meet me on Saturday night?
We’ll dance in the shadows between the street lights
Between these two rivers I know where we’ll meet
On Prince’s Street

I spent Friday just counting the time
Till up in a tower I heard some bells chime
I saw a great goldfish take wing like a swan
And told me that Saturday wouldn’t be long

And oh will you meet me on Saturday night?
We’ll dance in the shadows between the street lights
Between these two rivers I know where we’ll meet
On Prince’s Street

And oh will you meet me on Saturday night?
We’ll dance with your ankles all bathed in moonlight
Between these two rivers I know where we’ll meet
On Prince’s Street
