Friday's Child

Lyrics: Van Morrison
Music: Van Morrison

Recorded on Zero's self-titled album. The oddity is that there's a listing on ASCAP for a song under this title with lyrics by Robert Hunter and music by Greg Anton. I assume this must be a mistake.

From the north to the south
You walked all the way
And you left your home
You left your home to stay
When built all of your castles
In the sun,
And you knocked them down
Each and every one
Just one thing
Friday's child
You can't stop now
Friday's child
Too late to stop now

Though I watched you
Before you became too old
And I told you
Before you ever came to be told
You know there's something
That everybody ought to know
You've got to hold on
Hold on, hold on and never let go
Friday's child
You can't stop now
Friday's child
Too late to stop now

There you go
You've got rainbows at your feet
And you're hanging out
With everyone you meet
And you're even, even had enough going
To stay up late, that's all right
You're around watching
Watching the sun come up around the Gate
Friday's child
You can't stop now
Friday's child
Too late to stop now

Friday's child
You can't stop now
Friday's child
Too late, too late to stop now
Said it's too late
Too late to stop now
