The street outside my window is quiet. The wailing sirens recede into the night. My eyes are tired; I may drift off to sleep…
familiar chords and a distinctive voice reach through the darkness:
Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Thursday doesn’t even start
It’s Friday I’m in love*
I smile and drift a little more.
Does anyone not do a little imaginary dance when they hear this song?
