It's finally Saturday morning
Summer fields farewell the night
The dog is scampering under my feet
Ten minutes between the bed and the car
I'm tearing down the freeway
The bridge is far behind me
The dashboard's flashing again
I guess I missed a fuse last night
But it gets shorter every weekend
And I can't wait to see you again
To see you in the city
The city by the bay
Where the lilies grow
Where the lilies and the roses grow
We'll meet outside the library
At a quarter past eleven
And everything fades away when I see you
Lighting up the street with every step that you take
Let's leave the world behind us
And go on our adventures
To the park where giants send us dreams
And kittens whisper jokes in our ears
And it gets better every weekend
No I can't wait to see you again
To see you in the city
The city by the bay
Where the lilies grow
Where the lilies and the roses grow
And I don't want to go home yet
I'm sick of driving over those tracks
Will you remember these days
When you're too big to hold my hand
But it gets shorter every weekend
And I can't wait to see you again
To see you in the city
The city by the bay
Where the lilies grow
Where the lilies and the roses grow
To see you in the city
The city by the bay
Where the lilies grow
Where the lilies and the roses grow
