Lyrics
I know a girl from a lonely street
The speaker knows a girl who seems isolated or detached.
Cold as ice cream but still as sweet
Despite her aloofness, she retains a certain kindness or charm.
Dry your eyes Sunday girl
Encouraging the girl to stop crying or feeling down on Sundays.
Hey, I saw your guy with a different girl
The speaker noticed the girl's partner with someone else.
Looks like he's in another world
The partner appears deeply engrossed or distant.
Run and hide Sunday girl
Suggesting the girl should escape or avoid the situation.
Hurry up, hurry up and wait
A sense of urgency followed by waiting or delays.
I stay away all week and still I wait
The speaker spends time apart but still anticipates.
I got the blues, please come see
Feeling melancholic and requesting the girl's presence.
What your loving means to me
Expressing the importance of the girl's affection.
She can't catch up with the working crowd
The girl struggles to fit in with the working crowd.
The weekend mood and she's feeling proud
Feeling content in the mood of the weekend while dreaming.
Live in dreams Sunday girl
Escaping reality by living in dreams.
Baby, I would like to go out tonight
Expressing a desire to go out for the night.
If I go with you my folks'll get uptight
Concern about parental disapproval if going out.
Stay at home Sunday girl
Suggesting staying home to avoid complications.
Hey, I saw your guy with a different girl
Repetition of seeing the girl's partner with another person.
Looks like he's in another world
Reiteration of the partner's apparent detachment.
Run and hide Sunday girl
Suggesting the girl should again avoid the situation.
When I saw you again in the summertime
Recalling seeing the girl during the summer.
If your love was as sweet as mine
Comparing the sweetness of love.
I could be Sunday's girl
The speaker could be the ideal partner for Sundays.
Hurry up, hurry up and wait
Repeated sense of urgency followed by waiting.
I stay away all week and still I wait
Continued anticipation despite staying away.
I got the blues, please come see
Reiterating the plea for the girl's presence.
What your loving means to me
Emphasizing the importance of the girl's love.
Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up and wait
Increased urgency to wait for the girl.
I got the blues, please, please, please come see
Strong plea for the girl to understand the impact.
What you do to me
Expressing the emotional effect of the girl's actions.
I got the blues
Reiteration of feeling down or melancholic.
Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up and wait
Urgently waiting again for the girl.
Hurry up, please come see what you do to me
Final plea for the girl to understand the impact on the speaker.
