Barely Out Of Tuesday Lyrics - Counting Crows

I woke up wednesday morning 

Staring at the ceiling 

Hoping for deliverance 

From the distances in you. 

This room feels like an oven 

Somewhere south of nowhere 

And north of nothing. 

I'm barely out of tuesday 

Seen seven hours of wednesday 

I guess I've found new friends 

Maybe you could leave the light on for me. 

Can't you see her 

Waiting there down by the sea? 

There's a light on, 

But the lock's in the door for me 

If you see me coming home, 

Turn me away. 

Everybody tries to go back somewhere someday. 

You get me at a distance. 

Fifty-two weeks later, 

They're still staying. 

Standing in my basement. 

Making my way 

Waiting for the telphone 

To deliver me away. 

I left from minnesota 

Where the winter's getting colder 

Keep the locks changing 

Maybe you could leave the light on for me. 

Can't you see her waiting there down by the sea? 

[? ] 

[? ] 

If you see me coming home, 

Turn me away. 

Everybody tries to go back somewhere someday. 

The farthest distance 

Getting around you to me 

What's the point of all this patience? 

It's not your nature 

To just keep what you need. 

You got some pictures of me. 

I woke up wednesday morning, 

Sometime wednesday evening, 

Hoping for a piece of something easy to believe. 

When you live out on the border 

Of everything and nothing 

There's nothing but waking and dreaming. 

I'm barely out of tuesday. 

There's no one to receive me, 

And nothing is changing. 

Maybe you could leave the light on for me. 

Can't you see her 

Waiting there down by the sea? 

There's a light on, 

But there's nobody there for me. 

If you see me coming home 

Turn me away 

'cause everybody tries to go back somewhere someday.
